Re: [WiX-users] trouble with Visual Studio integration after upgrade to WiX 3.7
Now I tried to use VS2008. This shouldn't need ProjectAggregator2.msi. Now I get this message: '...wixproj' cannot be opened because its project type (.wixproj) is not supported by this version of Visual Studio. - uninstall, reboot, install of WiX 3.7 did not help. - devenv /ResetSkipPkgs did not help. How can I check, that the support for WiX is installed in Visual Studio and how can I repair this? Regards Helge 2013/2/18 Helge Kruse helge.kr...@gmx.net: Hello I have used WiX 3.5 until today. Now I just wanted to upgrade to WiX 3.7 and ran the installer. Now I can compile with the new tools. Unfortunately I can't edit any .wxs file in VS2005 anymore. When I try to create a new WiX MSM project in VS205 I get the error message: The application for project 'C:\Users\hk\AppData\Local\Temp\ipooxrun.xfd\Temp\MergeModule1.wixproj' is not installed. I get similar messages when I try to open any already existing project. So it looks like the Votive/VS2005 integration is broken. I also tried to remove WiX 3.7 and install WiX 3.5 again. I doesn't work. How do I repair my system so that I can use any WiX version and the VS integration. Of course the preferred version is WiX 3.7. Regards Helge -- Everyone hates slow websites.

Re: [WiX-users] trouble with Visual Studio integration after upgrade to WiX 3.7
Please ignore my mail. I can open the wixproj in VS2008 when I install WiX toolset 3.7. My bad. Sorry for that noise. But there are still problems. When I start build project VS2008 crashes. In a debugger I can catch the BadFormatException: - Could not load file or assembly 'file:///C:\Program Files (x86)\WiX Toolset v3.7\bin\candle.exe' or one of its dependencies. This assembly is built by a runtime newer than the currently loaded runtime and cannot be loaded. - I can run candle and light successfully from the command line. Opening the wixproj in VS2005 still fails although ProjectAggregator2 is installed. Regards Helge 2013/2/19 Helge Kruse helge.kr...@gmx.net: Now I tried to use VS2008.

Re: [WiX-users] Help with Wix custom managed bootstrapper
On detect complete callback you must parse command line arguments to deside show UI or not and may bу automaticly plan some action. If it`s Command.Action == Uninstall, and Command.Display is Embedded or Passive, you have to plan(Uninstall), cause UI is not showing and anybody cann`t press uninstall button.

Re: [WiX-users] trouble with Visual Studio integration after upgrade to WiX 3.7
Neil, thanks that works perfectly. Obviously VS2008 tried to execute candle without creating a new process. This might save time when executing but gives trouble when a different run-time version is required. Your answer save me the evening.
