Re: [WiX-users] Adding Bootstrapper code to wxs file. (Somebody, please guide....)
Yep... definitely shouldn't be moving built-in files like msbuild.exe. Lots of bad things can happen as most of those sorts of tools assume they are in a particular location when you're using them. Better to qualify your path to the file or use the windows path to get a reference to it via batch files or something.
