Ah that could be what we are looking for... This is another case of not looking at the documentation or not knowing it there was any....
I'll get this a try on some of my Pure WiX samples to verify that this works and if it does then we should have everything..... Thanks, Tim.

Now if I set the WholeFilesOnly="no" then the size of the .msp is only 3.8 MB. Way smaller. So for the extra step of extracting the .msi files you get the ability to have a bit difference instead of whole files and you do not have to create a PatchFamily with all the known components that may of changed.... So just have to see about getting this WholeFilesOnly from PatchCreation into Pure WiX and we would be good to go.... -- View this message in context: http://windows-installer-xml-wix-toolset.687559.n2.nabble.com/Purely-WiX-patching-and-FeatureRef-tp7590049p7590484.html Sent from the wix-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ November Webinars for C, C++, Fortran Developers Accelerate application performance with scalable programming models.
