You have to keep it yourself. I like using the registry in this case but
you are right, you need to encrypt the password. DAPI is a pretty good
way to do that. Used to have a CustomAction that would encrypt any given
property... don't know what happened to that code.

I looked at this the other day. I admit Im not an encryption expert in
any way but DPAPI didnt seem to be appropriate. The DPAPI's encryption

Hey Guys,
I've been tasked with creating some shortcuts to the desktop when our app
installs. Most of these shortcuts belong to our own app and its deployed
files but a couple belong to other executables that already exist on the
target system (such as Sharepoint Central Admin).
For the shortcuts
So what can I use to check if the product has already been installed? I thought

Thanks Bob!
So that means, if I need to run an executable as "asyncNoWait", then I'll have
to use a different kind of customaction? If so, do you know what that type of
customaction is?
Thanks.

exist, then write the registry.
So I have these pieces of code:

One thing that you may try is the following:
1) put all the files that may get deleted inside their own component
2) Do not set any Guid for that component
Windows Installer will ignore these files when it comes to patching so you will
never be able to upgrade/downgrade them via patching mechani
