Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Adding permissions using <Registry><Permissions> Rob, it seems to be cache package. Now with Ex, I am able to have the permissions retained. Could you let me know how I make the permissions apply to the subkeys too ? Earlier I mentioned that with <Permissions> I was able to get the permissions to the subkeys. But now I am not getting that either. I guess I was trial and error and in combination, for <permissions> the permissions were being applied to subkeys. Anyway, now that I going with permissionEX, can you let me know how to have the permissions apply to subkeys ? Thanks in advance. -----Original Message----- From: Rob Mensching [mailto:rob.mensch...@microsoft.com] Sent: Thursday, January 29, 2009 1:01 PM To: General discussion for Windows Installer XML toolset. Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Adding permissions using <Registry><Permissions> That really surprises me... are you sure you rebuilt and completely uninstalled/installed (i.e. didn't use cached package)? -----Original Message----- From: Reddy, Mallikarjun (GWM-CAI) [mailto:mallikarjun_re...@ml.com] Sent: Thursday, January 29, 2009 09:29 To: General discussion for Windows Installer XML toolset. Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Adding permissions using <Registry><Permissions> Rob, thanks for the quick reply. No change in behavior with PermissionEx. xmlns:util='http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/Util' <Registry Id="Perm" Root="HKLM" Key="SOFTWARE\Test" Action="append" > <util:PermissionEx Extended="yes" Append="yes" Domain="MyDomain" User="MyUser" GenericAll="yes" /> </Registry> I noticed the subkeys are getting the permissions (even with <Permission>). Oddly, the subkeys are retaining the existing users/groups and adding the new user with the correct permissions. Any help for the root key would be appreciated.
