Re: [WiX-users] UninstallShortcut

Its applicable to per-machine installs also. The ice cant tell what your ALLUSERS value is and so that registry key is required to satisfy it. You just have to live with the fact there may be per user registry keys left behind at uninstall. The subject has been discussed frequently on the list and

Re: [WiX-users] State of WiX 3.6 - Burn?

Hi, At this time Burn runs all the MSI's on the server side so there's no MSI UI shown. As Burn is under active development, Burn may get this feature in the future (I'm not one of the developers, just mentioning what Rob said a while ago). For custom UI in Burn, you'll have to develop your

Re: [WiX-users] State of WiX 3.6 - Burn?

Thanks for the reply John. In our case I just need to bootstrap that MSI (which requires UI) so I guess I'll have to wait for Burn to get that feature. Other way would be to create my custom UI (same as the MSI I'm trying to install) and somehow pass those parameters to the other MSI? -- View
