hello!
I'm building a Bootstrapper WiX setup system with shell scripts (not
using VS), and struggling to get the setup going completely. I hope
Hi,
Using the managed bootstrapper, I've noticed that when
the DetectRelatedBundle event gets fired, the event argument Operation is
set to MajorUpgrade, even though I only changed the version of the bundle
(and the containing MSI package is running MinorUpgrade).
I suspect this is happening
Hello, I have created a custom action in C# and can run it without
problems.
However, I would like to access the selected features in the Wix Feature
tree in the custom action to make some actions depending on that. They are
not available as properties. In the WIX file I can access them

You probably don't want to use TARGETDIR in this way. TARGETDIR points to the
root directorty (C:\ for example) of where your files will be installed to.
It's not typically where you put components.

If you also sign the MSI and include the public thumbprint of the
certificate, it's also possible to apply future patches without admin rights

Hi Neil!
There is no need for the Util extension in an MSI for a registry search.
