[WiX-users] MSI Icon
Hi, I wanted to know whether it was possible to change the icon of the MSI file generated by WiX to something else? Regards, Hasan - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.

Re: [WiX-users] MSI Icon
I wanted to know whether it was possible to change the icon of the MSI file generated by WiX to something else? Hasan, Do you mean the icon that explorer displays for the .msi file or the icon that you see in the add/remove programs dialog once it is installed? If you mean the icon as viewed in explorer, I suspect not. Explorer does not handle .msi files differently from any other non-exe file type, like say a Word document.

Re: [WiX-users] MSI Icon
You can change the Add/Remove Products icon using the ARPPRODUCTICON property. You're correct that you cannot change the icon used for the .msi file, nor the icon in the top-left corner of the install dialogs. -- Mike Dimmick -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of John Hall Sent: 27 July 2007 16:54 To: Hasan Zaidi Cc: wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [WiX-users] MSI Icon I wanted to know whether it was possible to change the icon of the MSI file generated by WiX to something else?

Re: [WiX-users] MSI Icon
To John, Yes, I was referring to the icon as shown in Windows Explorer. I have a set of installers for my system and I was hoping to be able to have different icons for each installer. Oh well...
