Re: [WiX-users] Avoid install on removable drives

Ok this one's cool. But I want to use an immediate CA in the UI sequence which can prevent the user from selecting the removable drive itself. I suppose this VC++ CA needs to be elevated and we should pass the appDrive value to a deferred CA?? - Andy MSI Developer Schneider Electric --

[WiX-users] Createing a ProgId that references VS2010

Yes, sorry, should have mentioned that in the beginning. You want Verb/@TargetProperty (and then you don't need the square brackets yourself). On Sun, May 2, 2010 at 5:07 PM, Jim Deville jdevi...@microsoft.com wrote: So is there any way to do this outside of writing the reg key myself? Sent
