In my Product.wxs, I have the following: <Directory Id="TARGETDIR" Name="SourceDir"> <Directory Id="SUPPORTDIR" Name="SupporDir"> <Component Id="SSLCerts1" Guid=""> <File Id="ServerPEM1" Name="server.pem" DiskId="1" Source="..\\..\\Common\\server.pem" Vital="yes" KeyPath="yes" Hidden="yes"/> <File Id="RootPEM1" Name="root.pem" DiskId="1" Source="..\\..\\Common\\root.pem" Vital="yes" KeyPath="no" Hidden="yes" /> </Component> </Directory> *other stuff* </directory>
The idea we'd had to was to use SUPPORTDIR as a sort of temp directory just to install the pem files, and then delete the SUPPORTDIR after it's purpose has been fulfilled. I'm including this, as it might also be useful in trying to figure this out. Again, thanks for any help. On 1/3/2012 1:41 PM, Adam Kadzban wrote: > I'm not sure of a way to do it in WIX.
