Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Shortcut Icons showing as generic I tried setting Advertise="no" and I get these two ICE errors, which is probably what prompted the change during the conversion. error LGHT0204 : ICE43: Component Autotaskconfigexe has non-advertised shortcuts. It should use a registry key under HKCU as its KeyPath, not a file. error LGHT0204 : ICE57: Component 'Autotaskconfigexe' has both per-user and per-machine data with a per-machine KeyPath. If I leave it as Advertise="yes" then no ICE errors, but the original problem occurs where the icon shows generic until someone clicks it. -----Original Message----- From: Chad Petersen [mailto:chad.peter...@harlandfs.com] Sent: Monday, October 25, 2010 12:29 PM To: General discussion for Windows Installer XML toolset. Subject: [WiX-users] Shortcut Icons showing as generic When installing my package the icon for normal file shortcuts are initially showing up as generic icons. Once a person double-clicks on a particular one then the icon changes to the correct one. We did not have this issue when compiling using WiX 2.0. In that version the Shortcut table in Orca showed the Target column as [#fileid]. Now, when compiled using WiX 3.0 the Target column shows the Feature under which the icon is created. The conversion itself added Advertise="yes" to each of my Shortcut elements. Is this correct? Or it is likely what is causing the new behavior?
