Re: [WiX-users] WcaAddTempRecord - S_OK but no results - how to debug?

My apologies again! It was a dumb typo on my part. As I was pasting an example of my code into the editor to post here, I realized that the last parameter of WcaAddTempRecord should be a ComponentId, and I had used the Id of my custom xml element. Changing that parameter to the Id of the

Re: [WiX-users] Reboot required during major upgrade in-between uninstall and re-install

Thank you, Phil. Unfortunately, I only have one MSI that installs both my application and ext2fsd. Are you suggesting that I split them up into two MSIs and then bundle them using Burn? Thank you. -- View this message in context:

Re: [WiX-users] Reboot required during major upgrade in-between uninstall and re-install

I guess I misread your question and assumed that you were using Burn. Given that I came across those posts I thought they might be helpful but if you are not using Burn I can't really make any suggestion. I have only used the approach of putting each app and each driver in a separate UI-less MSI

[WiX-users] How to Uninstall ExePackage Only During Uninstall

My ExePackage gets uninstalled during upgrades and I'd like to only uninstall during an actual uninstall. Any suggestions on how I might go about doing this? I was hoping I could do something in my bafunctions.dll but I'm hitting a wall in my brainstorming. My bundle consists of the following: *
