I doubt overwrite will help. Can you get a log file from a failure? That will go a long way to diagnosing the problem.

Subject: [WiX-users] Certificate install to local machine fails with code 26352 I've had some users complain about a problem with an installer that attempts to add a certificate to the trusted root cert store. I added a component to my setup that looks like this: <Component Id="RootCA" Guid="A1106EC4-9546-4a4f-AE6D-4F94DE066C0E" Permanent="yes"> <Condition>CERTPATH</Condition> <CreateFolder/> <iis:Certificate Name="CTTCA" Id='CTTCA' Request='no' CertificatePath='[CERTPATH]' StoreLocation='localMachine' StoreName='root'/> </Component> Most of the time, this works fine, and the root CA cert is put in the local machine store (so the app can form TLS connections based on the certs our CA issues). In some cases though, the installer will fail with error 26352, and I've found that removing the certificate install option lets the installer run successfully. In all the cases where this happens, I've noticed that the local machine and current user stores contain multiple certificates with the same name. I'm not sure how to replicate this (since every time I try to add a certificate twice it fails), but if nothing else, I'd like to be able to fail non-catastrophically if the certificate install fails. Is there a way to make the certificacte component non-vital, so that if it fails to install to the store, the rest of the application can still be installed? I'm going to try using the Overwrite attribute on the certificate element to see if that helps. Thanks!
