Use Programs and Features to Uninstall Wix, then move your project out of your Dev directory. Second, Delete your Dev Directory, then redownload Wix37.exe and Wix37-sources.zip. Unzip the sources back into your Dev Directory. After this open your Gui source Files in your project, and Rename the Files each one references to something new. In short your modified file cannot reference anything with the same name as the UI source Files.
