Re: [WiX-users] Issue with applying language transform after a hard reset

When an installation is suspended, properties that have already been setup are retained, so what you see is by design (text straight from the DB is transformed, text from properties is not). You need to either complete the previous installation or roll it back. -Original Message- From: Leu
