Thanks for your answer. Yes I am getting the browse dialog, asking for
the msi file that was used to install the software. So that's the
exepected behavior.

MSI doesn't cache the entire MSI file - it discards the embedded CAB file -
so to check or reinstall files it needs access to the original installation
source.
However, you should be seeing a browse dialog asking for the source. If
you're not getting a browse dialog, that message you're seeing is may be
something else. Are you seeing error 1606 or 1706? 1706 is missing source,
1606 is typically caused by a property being used as a directory, but it's
not resolving to the local file system so it looks like a network location.

Subject: [WiX-users] Repairing an Installation
Hi,
I have a little problem with the installer I'm developing. It seems to
be impossible to repair the installation without the original msi file.
If I delete the msi file, repairing allways ends with the error The
feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is
unavailable.. I thought the Windows Installer is caching the original
msi file. If it doesn't, is there a possibility to fix the repair option?
