Are you running the wix36.exe from an elevate process? If not I think that may be the issue.

When running the following command, I am seeing an error related to a failure with the creation of a system restore point: C:\FAST\Wix36.exe -quiet Log snippet at the point of error: Plan complete, result: 0x0 Apply begin Creating a system restore point.

Or is the failure to create a system restore point caused by something else? Also, is there any documentation available on the web that shows all of the valid switches that are available?
