When I added the WixExtendedBootstraperApplication to my Wix 3.7.1224 installation, I downloaded the zip package from: http://wixextba.codeplex.com/releases/view/105895 And I put the one DLL in that package into my Wix Toolset 3.7.1224\bin folder. At a later point I did what I described in an

Okay, when I installed the latest WiX 3.8 and Updated my project files to use 3.8 the build correctly built in the UI so that on German the UI/EULA is German, on French it is French and on English and unsupported languages it shows English. So yes 3.8 has the fixes in it. So my version of 3.7 has

Well, I am sorry to hear that it is not working for you. Since I can build it with 3.7 and it works, I think I would try to use ProcessMon or WinDbg to figure out what the issue is, focusing only on the German Wix 3.7 exe which I complied for you and your compilation of the same thing. Originally

Okay after getting your install to build I test and it will still not show German or French licenses on German and French systems. This is still building with WiX 3.7 and having the updated WiXBalExtentionExt.dll file into my WiX 3.7 bin folder. So just having no luck what so ever. I'll look at i

After doing this experiment with your code and demonstrating that automatically detecting languages works using WiX 3.7, even without specifically using the WiXExtenededBootstraperApplication, I switched my main project (seven languages) back to Wix 3.7. I did limited testing on my Windows 8 test

Placing the WiXBalExtentionExt.dll file into my WiX 3.7 bin folder did not make a difference. So was there anything else you had to do or did to make this work? Can both 3.7 and 3.8 reside on the machine at the same time? If as you said that 3.8 already has the fix in it then I was thinking of ins

No, but I had a similar issue and determined that Symantec is assuming that if the package does not have a valid Code Signing signature it is a virus. There is no virus, it is a FALSE Positive which many others have also had issues with. If you use your code signing certificate to sign the bundle

Tim; I took your wxs file and added it to a new WiX bootstrapper setup project (in VS2010). I tried to recreated your file tree as closely as possible and I stripped out the code that was not related to testing whether the localized files were displayed, without needing to provide the -lang switc

There should not be a problem with Product Codes as I am using the same .msi in both MsiPackage entries, not multiple msi's that are language specific. I have again just the one .msi and the language .mst's files. So if one of the supported languages exists it will trigger the first MsiPackage ID

Burn and its existing WixStdBA don't support this out of the box today. I see two choices for you. The first is to have a single msi with no transforms and either use multiple components with conditions on the localized shortcuts or utilize a CA at runtime to inject the localized shortcuts into
