I am seeing this both on domain and workgroup configurations, and both with users with and without administrator privileges. I've been trying out all kinds of things but nothing I can think of seems to make a difference so far. @Neil: Is your package signed or unsigned? All our packages are signed with an official code signing certificate, haven't actually disabling the signing yet to see if that makes any difference. // Sascha On Fri, Aug 29, 2014 at 2:11 PM, Neil Sleightholm <n...@x2systems.com> wrote: > I am seeing this on a domain. > > We have raised this through our access to Microsoft support and have > been told it has been reported to them by a few customers. > > Neil > > -----Original Message----- > From: Phil Wilson [mailto:phildgwil...@gmail.com] > Sent: 29 August 2014 19:24 > To: General discussion about the WiX toolset. > Subject: Re: [WiX-users] SECREPAIR: CryptAcquireContext: Could not > create the default key container > > Is this happening primarily in domains or networks?
