Subject: [WiX-users] WiX 3.5 patch: newly added feature is automaticallyinstalled What causes newly added (not top level) feature using purely WiX (3.5) to be automatically installed? I added new feature which contained both existing and new components and it was way above the INSTALLLEVEL and patch installation installed it automatically. I've checked the verbose installation log and all I found was this: PROPERTY CHANGE: Adding ADDLOCAL property. Its value is 'NewFeature'.
