I thought of something to try right after I sent the note below and it worked. I'd like to know why it worked though.
I had another component containing a shortcut to nunit.exe, the same file that has the icon for the shortcuts below. So, it looked like this... <Component...> <File Id="nunit.exe" ...> <Shortcut...> </File> </Component> <Component...> <File Id="clr.bat" ...> <Shortcut...> <Shortcut...> <Shortcut...> </File </Component> <Icon Id="nunit_icon.exe" SourceFile="nunit.exe"/> I combined the two files and four shortcuts into a single component and it worked. My instinct is that there is something here I should understand better. :-) Charlie > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of > Charlie Poole > Sent: Saturday, September 16, 2006 2:32 PM > To: wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net > Subject: [WiX-users] Shortcuts that won't go away > > Hi All, > > I have a set of shortcuts in one component that won't go away > on uninstall. > > Here's a snippet from my wxs file... > > <Component Id="C__RuntimeSelector" > Guid="0E428D48-6EC3-91C3-C230-09C34647D786"> > <File Id="clr.bat" Name="clr.bat" src="clr.bat" > KeyPath="yes" > DiskId="1"> > <Shortcut Id="Shortcut_1.0" > Arguments="1.0 nunit.exe" Directory="D__nunit_menu" > Name="SNUNIT10" LongName="NUnit GUI > (.NET 1.0)" > Advertise="no" > Icon="nunit_icon.exe" IconIndex="0" > Show="minimized" > WorkingDirectory="D__bin" /> > <Shortcut Id="Shortcut_1.1" > Arguments="1.1 nunit.exe" Advertise="no" > Directory="D__nunit_menu" Name="SNUNIT11" > LongName="NUnit GUI (.NET 1.1)" > Icon="nunit_icon.exe" IconIndex="0" > Show="minimized" > WorkingDirectory="D__bin" /> > <Shortcut Id="Shortcut_2.0" > Arguments="2.0 nunit.exe" Advertise="no" > Directory="D__nunit_menu" Name="SNUNIT20" > LongName="NUnit GUI (.NET 2.0)" > Icon="nunit_icon.exe" IconIndex="0" > Show="minimized" > WorkingDirectory="D__bin" /> > </File> > </Component> > > On uninstall, the log says... > > MSI (s) (B4:C0) [14:29:01:000]: 'Shortcut_1.0' shortcut's, > 'C__RuntimeSelector' component will not be removed, so that > 'nunit_icon.exe' > icon will not be removed. > > Charlie > > > > -------------------------------------------------------------- > ----------- > Using Tomcat but need to do more?
