WiX / MSI doesn't have any elements/table data to express file timestamps.  
This is a function of when the file is compressed into the CAB.  


I don't see anything strange about the behavior as it's expected since 
windows is aware of UTC and Local time and will use UTC internally but show 
Local to the user.

Subject: [WiX-users] Strange behavior with date modifying of installed 
files


Hi all,


I have noticed a strange behavior during installation.

For example, we have a build server with UTC+01.00.

I have a production server with UTC-06.00.

I run a build on the build server and create an installation.

I install the installation on the production server and can see, that 
"modify date" of all files are in future.

Is such behavior correct?

May I change "modify date" parameter by WIX?
