..and remember that MSI installs don't violate security. You may be thinking that there is a setting that allows somebody with non-admin privileges to do an install that writes to restricted locations. Are you writing to the registry with custom actions are or they defined in WiX?

I could not install in Vista and windows 7 OS (Japanese). I have researched and most of my searches tells me to elevate my privileges. But, how should I really do this? I have tried to set my package's attributes InstallPrivileges to elevated and the InstallScope to perMachine but still an error appears. There is already a SHIELD icon on my install button, but still I cannot update my registry. Hope someone can help me on this. Thanks. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------ _______________________________________________ WiX-users mailing list WiX-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wix-users ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ WiX-users mailing list WiX-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wix-users *** Confidentiality Notice: This e-mail, including any associated or attached files, is intended solely for the individual or entity to which it is addressed.
