[WiX-users] Language neutral installer
Dear All, I'm trying to copy the Installshield model of having a base msi and then language specific mst files for each language (including English). I know how to generate localised msi in each language, but I'm not sure how to create the language neutral base msi. Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Re: [WiX-users] MSI's and unknown publisher
Wait, are you saying it's possible to add that entry? I was under the impression that the way Windows Installer caches MSIs, it can no longer authenticate the digital signature of the file as it has been changed.

[WiX-users] Installing files from a pre-generated CAB file
Suppose I have a cab file called FILES.CAB, which I've generated previously. Is there any way (other than running a custom action to extract it) to install the files within this CAB using WIX?

[WiX-users] WiX to generate MSI that will uninstall IstallShield
Hi, Can anybody tell me what will be the appropriate way of uninstalling previous versions not made with MSI - InstallShield in particular? Right now I am experimenting of adding CustomAction that will execute the UninstallString put into the registry from InstallShield installation; I pull the registry value, but I cannot execute it; Should I use script custom action? ..Native Dll?

[WiX-users] Problem upgrading from per user to system-wide
In my initial realease of a product, the installer left the ALLUSERS property undefined. As a result, the software seems to be installed per-user instead of for all users on the system. When I correct this and set the ALLUSERS property to 1, the upgrade fails to remove the old version. If, in the new installer, I leave ALLUSERS undefined, upgrade works as expected. What should I do to remove the previous versions? - Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.

Re: [WiX-users] Problem upgrading from per user to system-wide
Upgrades ( including Major ) can't migrate an installed application from per-user to all-users. You have to first uninstall the app for each user who might have installed it and then reinstall the application as all user.This servicing ugliness is the reason for MSI Tao Rule # 30. http://blogs.msdn.com/windows_installer_team/archive/2006/05/24/605835.aspx Chad Blomquist [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: In my initial realease of a product, the installer left the ALLUSERS property undefined.

Re: [WiX-users] WiX to generate MSI that will uninstall IstallShield
Whatever you choose, you want to do it before Costing or otherwise you can get into some funky component rule problems. I've not had to address this sort of problem since my enterprise repackaging days but generally I'd write a stand alone `forced uninstall` utility that I would chain ( or instruct my users to run ) before my main MSI even started.
