I'm using heat to generate the fragment for my COM object. After installing the MSI, the CLSID entries are not created in the registry. Should I add Registry elements to my WXS file manually or am I doing something wrong? Thanks, Dariel -

When running the deferred custom action, a directory is created in the installation directory. The log files says that the custom action is being extracted to a temporary folder. Why is it not doing this in the typical temp directory? Here's the pertinent part of the log file: ... MSI (s) (0C:
