You don't say if the XP is 32 or 64 bit. You also didn't mention trying it on 32-bit Win7.
I think it is a bitness issue, and the binary you are harvesting may be written to accommodate it. According to this page [http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms680091(v=VS.85).aspx] what the ProxyStubClassId attribute maps into: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Interface\{IID} ProxyStubClsid is used for 16-bit code, and there is no 16-bit code on 64-bit systems. -----Original Message----- From: Jon W [mailto:know...@gmail.com] Sent: Tuesday, October 05, 2010 1:56 PM To: General discussion for Windows Installer XML toolset. Subject: [WiX-users] heat.exe registry harvesting: ProxyStubClassId When I use heat.exe v3, or tallow.exe to gather registry information on XP, I get the following data: <Interface Id="{Y2D0778B-AC99-4C58-A5C8-E7724E5316B5}" Name="Hello" ProxyStubClassId="{00020424-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}" ProxyStubClassId32="{00020424-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}" /> When I use heat.exe v3, or tallow.exe to gather registry information on Win7 x64, I get the following data: <Interface Id="{Y2D0778B-AC99-4C58-A5C8-E7724E5316B5}" Name="Hello" ProxyStubClassId32="{00020424-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}" /> Is there a reason for the missing ProxyStubClassId entry on Win7 x64?
