There are two aspects: 1. The source says you can use a registry path or the upgrade code, which have been stable for months and are unlikely to change. 2. Unless you have an SLA that says they're supported for detection, you don't have a contract and it could change, either accidentally because we didn't know or intentionally when we're feeling malicious and evil. I'd suggest opening a feature request so at least we know someone wants a particular detection mechanism. -- sig://boB http://joyofsetup.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ WiX-users mailing list WiX-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wix-users
