Hi I think I have found a bug in WiX2 (2.0.5805.0) (not sure if it is also in Wix3 - not using it) Consider this code: Component Id=Component1 Guid=GUID DiskId=1 File Id=File1 Name=File1.exe Vital=yes KeyPath=yes Checksum=yes / File Id=File2 Name=File2.dll Vital=yes Checksum=yes CompanionFile=File1/ /Component Checking the MSI file with ORCA the FileTable: The row that belongs to file File2 will contain the real version of the file (in Column Version) instead of text: File1 The problem appears only if the file is binary. If the file File2 is text file the Version column is filled correctly. regards Pls. let me know if I should open a bug...
