It must use a registry key under HKCU as its KeyPath, not a file.
I tried learning what KeyPath means, but I can't find anything that
really talks about it in the WiX help file. Many topics refer to it,
but I can't find what ICE38 is and why I need a registry key, and I
still don't know what a KeyPath means.
WiX doesn't do much on documenting MSI concepts; for those, you
want/need the MSI SDK. KeyPath is a column in the Component table:

See

for the oddities of ICEs and resources installed into the user profile.
