I'm surprised that no one has commented on this problem. Either is is such an advanced question that no one has the answer, but it is such a stupid question that the answer is obvious.
I'm going with the latter - that this must be the most stupid question asked all day. Well, I don't get it, and I'm up to the wall with this stuff, and I can't figure it out - stupid or not. So I'll bump it and restate it, in hopes that someone has some guidelines I can use when trying to do the following. Jeez... I used heat to harvest a DLL that needs to get registered on the system when it is installed. This DLL registers fine using regsvr32.exe. When I uninstall this package, the system complains that the file is in use (it *is* in use; it is a shell extension to windows explorer). This only happens when it is a lowly user that is trying to uninstall this. I thought that the registry registration/deregistration would happen elevated so removing this stuff from the registry would work. But something is causing the user to get prompted to stop explorer so the dll can be removed. What is best-practice here? Am I missing something? -- View this message in context: http://windows-installer-xml-wix-toolset.687559.n2.nabble.com/Registering-Explorer-Shell-Extension-using-Heat-tp7584406p7584611.html Sent from the wix-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Everyone hates slow websites.
