Are you using GACUTIL or the attributes on the File element to GAC?

Subject: [WiX-users] GAC PubPolicy Files on Windows Server 2016 Technical 
Preview?

The e-mail below is from an external source.  Please do not open attachments or 
click links from an unknown or suspicious origin.

I tried running our Wix-based installer on Windows Server Technical Preview and 
it choked on GACing a PubPolicy.
Please see the attached extract from the install log.

Is this a Windows bug or a WIx bug?

It seems that RemoveDIrectoryAndChildren is failing - is that because the 
GACing action does not expect to have more than one file when GACing the 
assembly?
My PubPolicy publish component has two files in it - the assembly and the 
accompanying xml file.


The same installer runs fine on previous Windows (W2K12R2, W2K12,W2K 8R2) and 
after removing the pub policy components and rebuilding, the resulting 
installer finished normally.
So single assembly GACing is working on Win2016 TechPreview, just as on earlier 
OSs,

Thanks in advance for your help.
