Thanks, it works!

Done.

Done.
The question that I have now is:
How to create a shortcut in the main file linked or referenced to a
file from the secondary file (source files).
In the past I used the following:
<Directory Id='INSTALLDIR' Name='BGInfo4X for Windows $(var.ProductVersion)'>
<Component Id='MainExecutable' Guid='8296463F-B539-4044-8250-B855EC0CCD52'>
<File Id='exampleEXE' Name='example.exe' DiskId='1'
Source='example.exe' KeyPath='yes'>
<Shortcut Id="startmenuExample" Directory="ProgramMenuDir"
Name="example shortcut" WorkingDirectory='INSTALLDIR'
Icon="WIX_32x32.ico" IconIndex="0" Advertise="yes" />
<Shortcut Id="desktopExample" Directory="DesktopFolder"
Name="example desktop" WorkingDirectory='INSTALLDIR'
Icon="WIX_32x32.ico" IconIndex="0" Advertise="yes" />
</File>
</Component>
</Directory>
But now, I can I adapt the shortcuts to work as expected?
Thanks a lot for your time.
