I'm sorry, the exact error message is:
"The Windows Installer service cannot update the system file 
c:\WINDOWS\System32\mfc42.dll because the file is protected by Windows. You may 
need to update your operating system for this program to work correctly"
 
When the installation was done with a vb6 program, we called a method which 
copy the file during next boot.
 
Is there similar solution with wix?

        Currently, I'm installing the merge module of mfc42.msm

        During the installation, it says mfc42.dll is used and it can't replace 
it.

        I can say cancel, ignore or retry so I don't think windows installer 
replace it during next reboot.

        Is there a way to ask windows installer to do this?

                The Windows Installer will take care of that for you.

                Hi,

                 

                I need to replace some files used by the system.

                To do this, I try to replace these files on reboot.

                But I don't know how to do this with wix.

                Can somebody help me?
