Excellent postings, very useful. It's always good to see real examples
Can you point me to some information on how to keep the package from registering itself so that every time the install package is started it will function like it was the first time installation? I realize this is not very normal but that is the way my company wants this particular package to work. I came across some property settings that might cause this type of functionality but I did not write them down. And I really would rather not have a CA that launches msizap.exe to remove the install information. Thanks. Lyle
Thank you so much for this blog. It helped me out tramendously in understanding Wix. One of the best one I found on the net that explains everything with real example... I am keeping this blog as my favorite..
To Lyle Hollenbeck:
Sorry for being so late. Sounds, like you need Major Upgrade. It will require some extra work on your part, but the good news is that there will be no need for msizap.
I really appreciate and enjoy your tutorial - it is one of the few great WIX / MSI resources.
Is there a reason why i cant access the Chapters 4 & 18? (I cant wait to see how the story ends!) :)
Thanks again,
We here at Harley-Davidson salute you as an honorary "Rider" -
большое спасибо!
I really appreciate your work here. We are moving from using the built-in Visual Studio deployment projects to using WiX. Your blog has been very helpful!
Are you going to update this to reflect 3.0?
Great stuff! Would be nice if a chapter would be dedicated to x64/64 bit installers.
