Hello Richard, thank you for your help. I will try to include the SelfRegModules action and test it on a virtual machine, and see if that solves the problem.
Do you know where can I get the Crystal Reports runtime MSI packages? We are using version XI, and in the crystal page, I can only find MSIs for version 2008. Do you know if newer versions include support for previous versions? I know this is not wix related, but I can't seem to find this information on Crystal site, so any help on this would be highly appreciated.
