Hi Guys, One more thread from me! :) I spend maybe a week or so trying to build WiX 3.8 code on various combinations of VS IDEs installed and found following: 1. VS2008 + VS2012 only cannot compile - VS2010 is needed for VS2012 to find VS2008 tools 2. VS2008 + VS2010 if .NET 4.5 (e.g. Win8 OS) is installed needs DISABLEOUTOFPROCTASKHOST=1 to be set in environment to build. 3. VS2008 + VS2010 + VS2012 currently produces native executable targeting OS 6.0 and above which means that it cannot be installed on XP and also projects targeting XP won't work. So it looks to me that VS2008+VS2010 is the only configuration producing WiX capable to target XP OS.
