Does WiX support modifying group policy? I need to enable the GP force a
specific visual style file or force Windows Classic from my MSI.
Thanks,

because a domain controller will just come by a little bit later
and
fix it for you.
Why don't you just update your VM images?

Subject: [WiX-users] GAC an assembly without embedding it within the MSI
I want
I want to GAC an assembly already present on target machines, I know where
this assembly is on every machine (you can assume, that path is static for
all target machines and wont change) I do not want to include the assembly
to be GAC'd in the MSI since it can change with each software deployment
Is there a better alternative to dotNetInstaller for chaining MSI's, MSU's
and EXE files?
dotNetInstaller is terrible in quiet mode with no options/documentation on
what parameters to pass when a component install fails etc (e.g Continue
Yes/No)
Thanks,
Jacob
Couple of questions here:
1) My installer is basically a machine prep install which needs to update
the target machine with an msu. How can I chain an MSU with WiX?
2) I need to turn off Windows Update Service as the last step in my
installer, but the MSU update can restart the machine so how
I have to start the Themes windows service from my MSI.
If the service is disabled on the target machine, I want to change the
service config to Auto and start the service. How can I do this in WiX?
Thanks,
Jacob

TerminalServerAware should be set to No and Impersonate should be set to

smaller files (maybe like each UI Dialog in its own file or something) so
