In the one component it will probably be the other RegistryValue, in the other
it will be the component's Directory

Yes of course WiX supports writing to HKLM, so where are you at this point?
Using HKMU? HKLM? It just works, and if it doesn't then something is going

I don't mean to add any confusion to this thread, but I am curious. If
keypath=no in the above code, what is the keypath in this situation?

You need to decide the bitness of that package and ideally say something
explicit in the components and in the Package Platform - nothing

Tried HKMU - but the key is just ignored. Key is not created neither in
HKLM nor in HKCU

If it were me... and your install is per-machine, use HKMU and then suppress
the one invalid ICE message.
Thanks Jacob for the response.
I still didn’t have success. With the below code, I don’t have any warnings.
But the key is created only when it is give is ‘HKCU’. Both ‘HKLM’ or ‘HKMU’
seems ignored (don’t see the key created after installation). Any help on this
would be appreciated.
Hi Phil,
Yes, the service doesn’t need a shortcut - it is just a convenience for the
user to uninstall. I now put the registry entries in a separate component.
But am unable to add the key to HKLM - I don’t get compile errors now, though
the installation is successful, I don’t see the key
Tried HKMU - but the key is just ignored. Key is not created neither in HKLM
nor in HKCU. This is the same behavior with HKLM. Logs also doesn’t give me
any hint on why it is getting ignored.

In some ways the ICE error reflects the fact that you are trying to deal
with two separate things here, one for the user and one for the service.
The service doesn't need a shortcut. It needs only the ProductCode
somewhere in the registry where it can find it, and frankly I wouldn't use
P.S. IMO you don't need HKMU because you should split that component, but
if your HKMU is going into HKCU then you're probably not doing an elevated
per machine install. You're probably per user.

The WiX toolset supports everything the Windows Installer supports.
