Hi,
I'm facing problem in Wixui_install Dir, When installer ends, the window (with
the finish button) is positioned almost out of the screen.
it is not critical because i can drag it with the title border, but it is not
practical.
How to set it as center..
Regards,
chaitanya
Current description/instructions for how to add to the WiX documentation are in

I couldn't find anywhere is there going to be in the future a parameter for
the heat tool or HeatDirectory task to define the DiskId attribute?

Hey Blair,
Thank you for the input. Great insights here.
I already have the InstallScope to perMachine, but
Here are a couple of suggestions:
1. Use xsl transform
2. Use the MediaTemplate element as that automatically splits files across cabs.

I am trying to install Wix 3.7 onto a Windows 7 Pro machine, with VS2008

Don't you run it with the /layout parameter to download everything you need
locally then copy that to the other machine.

I have not used burn because I have my own bootstrapper for now, but I believe
burn runs as a 32-bit application even on 64-bit Windows. You can still chain

Dear Mr. Sleightholm,
The MediaTemplate element did the trick. I haven't seen it in any examples,
so I didn't know such thing existed.
Thank you for your help :-)

But if burn should run as a 32-bit application, where am I going wrong

Why wouldn't you want burn if you need a bootstrapper? Did you install Wix, or

Hi Jose,
I suspect if you provide a little more information, such as the WiX version,
Visual Studio version, etc., someone else on the forum who has used burn will
be able to help you get up and running. I wouldn't abandon burn just yet. I

I'm pretty new at Wix, and was doing my first ever Installer.

You can use burn (bootstrapper) (which is an EXE) to launch your MSI's

Thanks for reply
The MSI file is a database that gets run by msiexec.exe which is part of
windows to do the install. Can't just convert it to exe. Would need to create
a bootstrapper exe. Burn is the wix version of a bootstrapper.

Sure. Use Burn. The MSI will just be inside the executable. See the
Bundle element.
