Thanks, it worked out, the problem was to create the folder structure where WPF bootstrapper is searching for the resources. I updated the .wsx bundle file.
From: <Payload SourceFile="$(var.BootstrapperBuildPath)de\Application.resources.dll"/> To: <Payload Name=" de\Application.resources.dll" SourceFile="$(var.BootstrapperBuildPath)de\Application.resources.dll"/> Now it works as expected. / Tomas -----Original Message----- From: Rob Mensching [mailto:r...@robmensching.com] Sent: den 8 mars 2013 18:35 To: General discussion for Windows Installer XML toolset. Subject: Re: [WiX-users] How to localize WiX bootstrapper If you wrote a custom bootstrapper application then it's more a question for the technology you used to create the UI. You'll be better served asking on a forum that supports the technology, in your case it sounds like WPF.
