With thanks to Tobias and Cody, I'm making progress on WiX Burn with a managed WPF UI.
I've used WiX to create an MSI and Burn to create a bootstrapper for it. After installing with the bootstrapper, I have two entries in Add/Remove programs: one for the MSI, one for the bootstrapper. There have been some messages suggesting the use of ARPSYSTEMCOMPONENT in the MSI to suppress its appearance in ARP. As I understand this property of MSI files, it will prevent the installation from writing any registry entries for the MSI in Add/Remove Programs. But I don't see it in the WiX 3.6 MSI, which uses Burn + WPF for deployment. How does Burn suppress the MSI entry in ARP when installing WiX 3.6 and (most importantly) what is the "supported" or "official" or "recommended" way of suppressing MSI entries with our own Burn-based solutions?
