Re: [WiX-users] How to delete a file(for temp use) after installation

[Sebastian Heid]

The <Binary > tag seems to be meant to do this kind of thing. This will include the exe in your msi and allow you to run it; but it will not install it and hence not require any deleting afterwards.     See for example (from the WIX Tutorial)   <CustomAction Id='LaunchFile' BinaryKey='FoobarEXE' ExeCommand=’’ Return=’asynchNoWait’/> with <Binary Id='FoobarExe' SourceFile='Binary\foobar.exe' />      Also just found that out, so anybody, if I got something wrong here pls correct me     Cheers       Seb     From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Young Yang (Worksoft) Sent: 12 July 2006 09:19 To: wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [WiX-users] How to delete a file(for temp use) after installation   Hi   In  my wix project, I need a .exe file to do some task, so package it in the msi, so this .exe file will be deployed with Product. After installation, I don’t need this .exe file, so I use custom action to delete it, ”del  .exe”, but it doesn’t work. Anybody has any idea? Is there any way that I don’t need install this .exe file and can still use it during installation.   Thank you very much.
