This may be extra info but I use a config.wxi file and set the values in
there and just reference them with variables like below.
However, you should probably set your values like below except you don't
have to use variables. Just set the values that you need applied.
<Product Id="YOUR-GUID-HERE or * "
Name="$(var.Name) $(var.InstallerProductVersion)"
Language="1033"
Version="$(var.InstallerProductVersion)"
Manufacturer="$(var.Manufacturer)"
UpgradeCode="$(var.UpgradeCode)">
<Package Id="YOUR-GUID-HERE or * "
InstallerVersion="200"
Compressed="yes"
Manufacturer="$(var.Manufacturer)"
Description="$(var.Description) $(var.InstallerProductVersion)"
Keywords="whatever"
Comments="(c) 2014 $(var.Manufacturer)"
InstallPrivileges="elevated"
InstallScope="perMachine"/>
Then you can use property id's to control what is in add/remove programs.
<Icon Id="Company.ico" SourceFile="your icon" />
<Property Id="ARPPRODUCTICON" Value="Company.ico" />
<Property Id="ARPHELPLINK" Value="$(var.ARPHELPLINK)" />
Others you can use are ( just off the top of my head).
