Hi phil,
If I set Advertise="No" it is giving the following error.
Error 71 ICE43: Component aa has non-advertised shortcuts. It should use
a
registry key under HKCU as its KeyPath, not a file.
Error 72 ICE57: Component 'SHORT' has both per-user and per-machine data
with a per-machine KeyPath.
Please tell me how to fix those errors.

This is why it's important for "setup developers" to be developers in
their own right, so they can speak with authority and, when necessary,
write code outside of setup to "lend a hand."

Probably because nobody noticed or complained: IA64 isn't exactly a
popular platform nor is it gaining in popularity. Feel free to enter a
bug but you might also want to just build it yourself.

No, nobody's contributed localizations for nl-NL for those extensions.

If you use "*" component guids, they'll be different based on the root
directory.

No. If the packages are mutually exclusive, you'll never run into a
problem. And even if they did both install on the same machine, it's
legal to have the same component in multiple products, as long as the
components have identical composition.

As in VBScript or JScript? It looks like that's not supported. Feel free
to file a bug -- and get rid of your dependence on script:

Then it's not WiX throwing the error but MSI. I'm guessing MSI's tree
control doesn't like the hard-coded drive letter that it can't use. Does
it work if you run a silent install? You might need a different approach.

Properties must be marked Secure="yes" to be used from both UI and
execute sequences.
