Re: [WiX-users] Download Msi or Exe with Bundle
No, Update/@Location points to a feed, such as http://wixtoolset.org/releases/feed/v3.10 If you aren't writing a custom BA, there isn't built in support for self-updates in WixSdtBA (it's in the engine thought). I do have my own fork/branch that has WixStdBA doing self-updates, which you could have a look at from https://github.com/jchoover/wix3/tree/develop-3.9-WixStdBA If you do have your own MBA, you can see how the WixBA does updates at https://github.com/wixtoolset/wix3/blob/develop/src/Setup/WixBA/UpdateViewModel.cs Once 3.10 has its first RC, I'll also be merging those changes into a 3.10 branch of mine. -Original Message- From: Shal Philipp [mailto:luc2...@inbox.ru] Sent: Thursday, June 11, 2015 1:16 AM To: wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Download Msi or Exe with Bundle Thanks!

[WiX-users] How to rollback installation after ApplyComplete event
Hello, I do some post-install configuration of installed product as part of installation and for user it still looks like install itself. When I got ApplyComplete event and I know that product is installed I run configuration that may take few minutes. I still want to allow user to cancel it and cancel whole installation. Is it possible to somehow tell Burn to rollback installation if it already passed ApplyComplete state? -- View this message in context: http://windows-installer-xml-wix-toolset.687559.n2.nabble.com/How-to-rollback-installation-after-ApplyComplete-event-tp7600608.html Sent from the wix-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- ___ WiX-users mailing list WiX-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wix-users

No. ApplyComplete means the apply is complete. If you want something to participate in the transaction put it in the Chain. _ Short replies here.

Re: [WiX-users] Patches no longer working for a specific RTM using WiX 3.7 + Pure WiX Patching
It will probably work but you may hit issues building patches. Nothing specific comes to mind. If you hit issue, you can upgrade using latest toolset then start patching again. Generally speaking, one should not change tooling when patching. That goes for all tools, versions of Visual Studio, compilers, etc. Too much churn can occur. _ Short replies here.

I have a question regarding upgrading WiX. We have several RTMs that have been produced using 3.7 and 3.9. Is it supported to move producing updated installers+patches to newer versions of WiX? My concern is that I don't want to have a large number of WiX versions floating around as both WiX and our own products mature over time.

[WiX-users] Detecting Windows 10 OS in Wix
Hello All, One of our codebases is on Wix 3.6 and we are using built-in Wix variable VersionNT to detect the OS version. The check we are doing is : (VersionNT v6.3) This should return true on Windows 10 but it's returning false. Looking at the Wix logs VersionNT is set to 6.3.0.0 and that explains why the check failed. On our other codebase which is on Wix 3.8, this seems to work as the value of the VersionNT property that gets logged is 10.0.0.0, which would pass the check. Does anyone know if this is something that got changed from Wix 3.6 to Wix 3.8? At this point of time, we may not be able to upgrade to Wix 3.8 for that codebase, so is there any other alternate way in Wix that we can use to detect if we are on Windows10 or not? v6.3 gets returned for Windows 8.1 as well as Windows Server 2012 R2 and we need a way to differentiate to not install a package(.NET 4.6) on a Win10 machine. Any pointers on using a registry to detect whether it's Win10 or not would be helpful.

Re: [WiX-users] Detecting Windows 10 OS in Wix
Hello. it is simply, Windows 10 uses new version as you wrote, so returned version 10.0 of Windows is correct.
