Dear Support Community, I have a really big issue.
I have created a merge module called TestMergeModule. This module installs some

I have a dialog. The dialog has a combo box. The list of the combo box is

populated and also there is a line when

That is exactly what I explained. With UAC on, the user token you launch the
MSI with is not a member of Admins (the token you retrieve clicking the
Continue button is). To compensate, Windows Installer considers everyone a
member of Administrators (since UAC provides over-the-shoulder

Hi Bob,
Do you happen to how I can get a list of all the variables defined in the
wix source? I am deriving from the PreprocessorExtension class.

I have been using Session.Log to send messages to the log. However, my results
seem inconsistent. Sometimes messages make it to the log and some don't. Even
within the same custom action. Is there something going on with the log that I
need to be aware of? Does it optimize out useless messages
The docs for MsiEnableLog talk about an option to force immediate flush of
every line, otherwise the installer flushes the log buffer after 20 lines.

You can retrieve the values of variables that already exist using the
GetVariableValue methods of the PreprocessorCore class, but the list of
variables itself isn't available.
You can create functions in your extension that can combine text or whatever
and retrieve variable values (or even error
Maybe I don't understand the GetVariableValue method, but it seems to need a
prefix and a variable name. What if I want the normal variables with the
prefix of var like $(var.myVariableName)? I didn't see any options to get

You are exactly on the right track. Your extension will implement a prefix
of Blah, will respond to a function named GetValue, and that function
will return the value from Core.GetVariableValue(var, args[0]);
Before your extension is called, $(lang)_cost will be replaced in the
