Thanks. I set Version attribute for Product element in format x.x.y.z and it is displayed correctly in Show Info window, but the issue is - actual application version is e.g. 1.260.1.25, but msi cannot be compiled due to installer restriction (major and minor should be less than 256). So I thought there is simple way to update DisplayVersion. Is there the only way out to update registry after install?

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Specify version number in Support Information window Works fine for me in all our MSI's & I don't do any special ARP property settings for it unlike a lot of the other items on that dialog. Are you setting the Version attribute correctly on your Product element? It should be something like 1.2.3.4 & I think the maximum value you can use for any of the 4 fields is 32768. As far as I know it's read from the "DisplayVersion" string in the registry under your products Uninstall information (see HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\{YOUR-PRODUCT-G UID-HERE}\). Make sure that's set properly after installation for your product if it's still not showing up. Comments you can do with <Property Id="ARPCOMMENTS">Insert your comment here.</Property> See http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa370905.aspx for other similar Properties relating to the ARP dialogs.

To see Support Info you should go to Control Panel -> Add or Remove Programs select Firefox and click on "Click here for support information" link. Also how can I show string Comments: in Support Info?
