I think you also need /HIDECONSOLE - you will still see a brief console window
but it should be present all the time.

Hi,
I'm using Wix 3.7 and I created C++ Custom Action Project.
The lib path is $(WIX)sdk\VS2010\lib.
When I compile it says dutil.lib can not be found.

In general, I find it makes sense to uninstall things in the reverse order to

If possible paste in a snippet of your log file around where the password is

This method only hides the value of the property when it is directly printed in
