No idea then sorry, suggest looking at the log files and seeing if you
can debug the issue. Additionally see if you can manually create a
shortcut with the settings suggested and see if that works

Still no luck Sascha.

I replaced the earlier Target element with this as you instructed.
Target=""[WindowsFolder]Explorer.exe""[CommonAppDataFolder]\MT\STR""
However, now it doesn't create anything at all on the desktop.

Hello,
Last time I tried this, I noticed that WiX un-packs all the merge modules and
then re-packs them into the destination .cab. So I'm curious, for the sakes of
improving performance...
If I create merge modules, and then place each merge module into its own .cab

Hi,
I'm having issues with the WiX3 installer crashing when I have a large mapped
network drive (2.5 TB). I think the problem may be that the installer is
checking the drive for size and free space, which appears to be taking a very
large time?
Has anyone else experienced anything similar? A

Hi Mark,
MSI packages support three top level actions. Which one of them will be run
depends on the switch we pass to the msiexec utility (I will omit for now MSI
API calls) and that also will determine which sequence tables will be used
during install.
So, when /i switch is passed, MSI will e
Okay. Maybe the code 1604 isn't so weird. I found another site that said it
means:
"1604 - Installation suspended, incomplete. - ERROR_INSTALL_SUSPEND"
So, then it worked, right? So, then how to I resume it from its suspended
state? If that's what has happened?

I had similar issues. Some of which I was able to resolve by making sure that
the reference to the web site had an IP specified - even if it's the wildcard:
Without the IP="*" - IIS 7 and IIS 5.1 gave me all kinds of strange issues.
Funny that IIS 6 didn't mind it missing.

Yes, that issue is fixed, but there is another issue with creating
AppPools, so if you don't use AppPools you can use Wix 3.5 to create
websites on IIS7.
