Features become advertised when the component rules are broken. To ensure that this issue doesn't happen, set the property MSIENFORCEUPGRADECOMPONENTRULES to 1 (the attempt to patch will instead have failed, and a verbose log would tell you what the offending component rule violation was). Som

If you are using Windows Installer UI you could try adding a Publish element to your Change button where the Event attribute is set to "reinstall" and the Value attribute set to a feature that contains your components. According to this page: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/aa371181.aspx the O

What's the likelihood of failure for the action? Failure in the execute sequence would most likely require a rollback because your UI options there are limited. While I'm not a fan of doing these things in the UI, if there needs to be some kind of error and retry dialog the UI sequence is probably

Thanks again Blair, I do really like this idea... and would have actually gone this way, if I hadn't now got the UI elevation working.. yeah it has the ugly black CMD line box.. but it's only for a second, and they have asked for a new certificate to be generated, so I'm ok with this UI imperfect

Thanks Blair The verbose log says that the component is already installed, so it won't perform any action. I guess I have to explicitly modify the install action for the appropriate components? Is there a WiX standard CA to perform this? I assume it'd just need to look at the WiX_InstallState pro

In your verbose log what does MSI's plan say about what it intends to do with your XmlFile components? What about the features that contain those components? What are you triggering for repair when you select "Change"? -Blair > From: kaize...@hotmail.com > To: wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net

Yes. Binary table. EXE custom actions should be a last resort, however, and is a bad user experience (you would have two prompts-for-elevation). Generating the certificate and inserting its details into the appropriate table during the execute sequence would be more reliable, easier to rollbac

How about this idea: Let the user select a cert to use, or alternately, select to generate a self-signed cert. Then, in the execute sequence, generate the self-signed cert and use it. No UI sequence elevation required. It will require an immediate custom action in the execute sequence to a
