Classification: Public Nope a repair would not have worked since you installed WIX before you installed VS2012 so the bits for 2012 were not installed and the repair wouldn't have installed them either :)

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] WiX with VS2012 The setup I had was VS2010 and WiX, installed in that order. I then installed VS2012, and I came across the issue described earlier. To resolve that issue, I tried repairing the WiX install, to no avail, so I uninstalled and reinstalled WiX, which resolved the issue. I do agree, however, that a repair should have resolved the issue. It's what I expected, anyway.
