 I'd say you need to find out what those registry items are for. You're
right that there should be a "better way", and that is Heat should not be
including them (unless they really are needed).



Since they *are* appearing, it sounds as if either you have:

A)      Found a bug in Heat

B)      There are COM dll's in the files you are processing (which
presumably your software is not using, and can therefore be removed)

C)      Some other process running on your system writing things to the
registry very frequently. (Since well behaved software tends not to, this
could indicate a malware infestation of some sort).



Would you be willing to share some more information about the registry
entries that are being generated? Perhaps someone here on the mailing list
can throw some light on what is going on.



Regards,

Richard

No they are not. We don't use regsvr32 to register any dlls, and there are
no registry entries in the wix for the last version of our software, and it
all worked.  Trust me we don't need to make any registry entries for the
software to work.  I guess I can just manually delete them from the wxs
files.  I was really hoping there would be a better way though.
