Hi,
I have made a bootstrapper which wraped around a msi, the custom ba dll was
written using mfc.
When I execute bootstrapper.exe \layout [DestFolder], it just copies the
bootstrapper.exe to the destination folder.
What should I do to make \layout extracting all the files embedded in the
bundl
Hi,
Thank you for the feedback

If you look at the duplicate id error messages, IMO, it is a conflict with
WixUIExtension as the file path for the conflict is from the WiX build
