Thank you for that. One thing I've been struggling with is how to make checkboxes start unchecked (but working!). I've searched all over the list and used google, and I've found no clear cut answer. Here are the relevant snippets so I can explain the problem clearly. Follow the TESTY property: --- In my Dialog definition I have this snippet: --- In my Features I have this snippet: TESTY --- And near the end of my Product definition I have the following Property: --- That works; I can check or uncheck the checkbox and it will act accordingly. The checkbox of course (because of the Property definition) starts checked. The consensus seems to be to omit "P" if I wanted it unchecked, and it indeed starts unchecked if I do that, but it won't install the feature if I check it! How am I supposed to do it then? And Bill, the answer to this would be a great addition to your explanation page. - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.

Your Directory structure probably looks something like this: . You could replace the 2nd Id for "WindowsVolume"... but then again the documentation says you shouldn't use that. I don't know why. You can always give it a try. - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc. Still grepping through log files to find problems? Stop.

[WiX-users] weekly release 3.0.3429.0 warnings
I just installed the latest weekly release and I see the following issues: When installing the Project Aggregator, it created a folder in the wrong(?) drive. It created a folder "IDE" with the file "ProjectAggregator2.dll" on my D drive which is only for data; all apps are installed on C. The D drive has more space so I assume TARGETDIR is D:\ and some folder in the installer is not set correctly? In any case, where should I put this folder and file, I don't want it dangling with my data. Also, I get the following warnings on a perfectly fine installer project (i.e., it compiled fine before): 1>C:\delivery\Dev\wix_public\src\ext\uiextension\wixlib\ResumeDlg.wxs(17,0): Warning LGHT1076: ICE45: Row 'ResumeDlg.Install' in table 'Control' has bits set in the 'Attributes' column that are reserved. They should be 0 to ensure compatability with future installer versions. 1>C:\delivery\Dev\wix_public\src\ext\uiextension\wixlib\VerifyReadyDlg.wxs(49,0): Warning LGHT1076: ICE45: Row 'VerifyReadyDlg.Remove' in table 'Control' has bits set in the 'Attributes' column that are reserved.

They should be 0 to ensure compatability with future installer versions. Of course, those are not my folders. I assume they are development folders.
