Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Burn failed to initialize COM at EngineRun(). Hi, I've found the culprit. I installed a program named Lingoes(a translator), and run the Ligoes.exe in the back. When my installer starts, it loaded the following dll before entering stub.exe's wWinMain. C:\Users\Administrator\AppData\Local\Lingoes\Translator\lingoes-us\OpenText32.dll It looks like this OpenText32.dll already initialized COM using a different thread mode. If I terminate the Ligoes.exe, the problem vanished. Since I'm using debug version of burn.exe, it will crash. In release version of burn.exe, it will not crash because ExitOnFailure is not available under release build. So is this a bug? Or a flaw I can just ignore?
