Hmm, I don't remember that being necessary. I think the Windows Installer
remembers folders correctly to handle uninstall. Have you seen it not work?

I'm not sure how you exclude your default config file changes with PatchWiz,
but then again I gave up on PatchWiz after it hung my build system one too

Ahh, heh, yeah, I got that backwards. Bummer. Yeah, that should work. Feel
free to open a WiX v3.6 bug and it might get fixed there (or WiX v4).

WiX v3.5 is basically:
* Visual Studio 2010 support
* IIS7 Custom Actions (without II6 metabase compatibility)
* Minor improvements to language (i.e. MajorUpgrade element)
* More bugs fixed than WiX v3.0 (if you haven't seen the bugs, you probably
don't care ).
On Thu, Jan 20, 2011 at 6:28 AM,
Please post a feature request on SourceForge against v4. In-build harvesting
improvements have been directed towards v4 in an effort to wind v3 down and
get it out the door.

Yea, sorry, that's true, isn't it. Sorry, I validate (including calling
DoAction to call CAs that assist in my validations) and then SpawnDialog to
report/or-otherwise-deal-with errors or NewDialog to move on, depending on
the results of my validation. I hadn't tried a warning.

Well I think I have figured out why the issue is occurring.
The call that is failing in the custom action is LoadUserProfile(). This
needs the SeBackupPrivilege which the windows installers service *does not*
have on a UAC-enabled system.
Some details:

Hi Rob,
Other way around. I want to harvest c# projects into a wix library, which

Should we use the "Remember Property" pattern to remember DirectoryIds like

Thanks for the info. I played around with this a bit, but still could not

So I finally got this working and thought I'd best post the reply here for
other people having the
same issue. Specifically, the dirver I'm installing is a file system driver.
Here's my INF file:

I should also say that in our build process a list of .cs files are updated
automatically from the master build number.

Hi,
Our builds run a custom TFS build task that checks out a build number file,
updates it and checks it back in.
This is used as a msbuild property that is passed to our wixprojs which are

I found three alternatives. None of them appeals to me, because they
