In fact, if you add it to iexplore and firefox which usually close, nothing
gets close. Is there any way around this? I presume this is outside Wix
domain since chrome does show up in FilesInUse.

Still not able to get FilesInUse dialog to come up. Any advice would be
much appreciated.

It seems that CloseMessage="no" should have triggered FilesInUse, but it
doesn't at all. The installation just proceeds.

chrome.exe - does not close

iexplore.exe - closes and restarts (blank page)

The plot thickens. Removing Chrome from the mix makes it work.
Is this solvable? I did notice that chrome.exe uses a lot of processes.
Could this be the issue? Is there a limit on the # of processes?

None of the browser instances are closed.

Dear Rob et al.,
Thanks everyone for being so gracious. This time I would like the installer
to shutdown any browsers (IE, Chrome, Firefox) prior to installation, and
restart them after installation completes. I think I should
use MsiRMFilesInUse but have not been able to locate any samples or

Silly me. I was able to get the browsers to close by setting
CloseMessage="yes". Next step, how do I use "FilesInUse"?

Hi, we are a requirement to kill Chrome and Firefox during install, so that
we can install or modify a plugin. What is the best way to kill processes
(or ask the user to kill processes)?
Thanks,

Perhaps just a misunderstanding. Could it be that CustomActions have to be
always between and fragments are not exactly extra bits
of the Product?

Is it possible to change the reboot message shown for "ScheduleReboot"? I
would like it to be simpler, something like "[2] has been installed. Click
Yes to restart now. Click No to manually restart later." I read of some
folks using "Error Id=1703" but I'm not sure where to put this.
Respectfully,
I would like to launch my application immediately after the installer
reboots. Is setting a runonce registry the best way to do this? If I have a
scheduled reboot, can I make my UI continue and prompt the user to "launch
the application" now?

I think it might be
True
manually entered into your wixproj.

Hi, I'm just getting started with using burn to build the BootStrapper
(VS2010). If I want to make a CD *and *a web-based deployment will I need
to make two bootstrapper projects? Or can I do it all in one.
Thank you.

In an attempt to generalize my .wxs, I realized that I'm not clear at all
on when I can use [Manufacturer] and [ProductName] and when I cannot. While
I can use it here:
I cannot use it here (it just shows up literally as [ProductName]) in my

It would be nice if a "desktop shortcut" guide could be added to

Dear Victor,
While contrary to absolutely everything I've read about QtExec, your advice
absolutely worked. Thanks for saving the day.
Does this mean that QtExecCmdLine and QtExecDeferred are no longer used in
v3.6? Docs should be updated.

Newbie to WiX here. What does "failed to get command line data" really
mean?
Does it mean it doesn't see my command or does it mean my command doesn't
run? I've been able to track down a few threads where folks find solutions,
but I'm still not getting things to work. I have a test .exe called

Dear Chris (Robison),
Have you tested the original .bat file? I ran into just this issue earlier
today. I had written my .bat file from Visual Studio (11) which started as
a UTF-8 (or -16 not sure) .txt file. Not surprisingly, it had the BOM
appended to the front, which prevented execution.
