Re: [WiX-users] Convert .reg file to .wxs?
Yes, I'm using 3.0, but it sounds like heat doesn't have the same feature that Tallow did. I guess that Heat was a fresh start from tallow then? I also tried harvesting the COM exe with heat, and while I got a partial set of keys, it didn't seem to get everything that I needed. Finally managed to get everything by using RegSnap to take a snapshot of the registry, run "server.exe /regserver", take a new snapshot, and check the diffs. -Original Message- From: Stefan Pavlik [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, March 20, 2007 9:01 AM To: Chris Bardon Cc: wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Convert .reg file to .wxs?
