I got around the problem by downloading and installing version 3.8. I hope it will prove stable enough to work!
Now on to the tutorials to learn how to use this...

It looks like the needed installation files are missing from wixtoolset.org. Terry Carnes Sr. Developer Reed Technology From: Carnes, Terry (Reedfax) Sent: Wednesday, October 09, 2013 1:52 PM To: 'wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net' Subject: How do I find the reason WiX install fails? I am trying to install WiX 3.7 on a Windows 7 Enterprise SP 1 laptop which has VS 2005, 2008, and 2012 installed. When running the wix37.exe application and receiving the main form, I then click on "Install". After a minute or two, I then receive the message, "Failed. Try Again?" I have tried running wix37.exe as Administrator, rebooted and made sure no other programs were running, etc. But nothing seems to work. Is there any way to find out why it failed? I've checked the Event Viewer, but could not find anything that seemed applicable to me. Has anyone else had this problem?
