Correct, installed packages have their signatures invalidated when the 
embedded cabinets are stripped out. Sorry, I didn't differentiate. 
Ryan's question was about the UAC prompt on installation.

No, it comes from an Authenticode digital signature.

[WiX-users] MSI's and unknown publisher

2008-04-01 Thread Ryan Elliott
Hello,

I have noticed that when I run an MSI that I have developed via WIX, I get a 
UAC prompt as expected to install the files. However, in the UAC prompt, it 
states that the MSI is from an "Unknown Publisher". Does anyone know if I need 
to specify anything within my WIX file to populate this entry?

Thanks in advance!
