These are auto-generated shortnames. I suspect files whose length is greater 
than 8 will have these while those that confirm -- as is -- to 8.3 naming 
conventions will not. In other words, I do not think you have anything to worry 
about and this is expected.

Good luck,

Subject: [WiX-users] Orca reports strange filenames


I noticed that my MSI got some 3 MB bigger. I did not add any files, so I find 
this worrying. I checked it with Orca and found that multiple files have 
strange filenames:

 

si-ychbx.png|image1.png

vmpdkuil.exe|Application.exe

etc

 

Not all files, only a third or so. Is this normal?

 

Common for all (except one of) these files is that they are included in 
components with multiple files, which, as far as I understand, is a bad idea.
