Hi,

I'm building a MSI installer package with WiX 3.0 containing a Mozilla 
XULRunner based product. Updates will be provided by Mozilla's own 
update mechanism, which runs as unprivileged user (the users have write 
access to Program Files/... but not to the HKLM registry keys).

This works great (I have rather broad uninstall rules to include all 
installed files after the initial installation), only one rather small 
problem remains: in the Add/Remove Software dialog, the version number 
of the application is displayed which was set in the MSI. When doing 
updates, I'm unable to update this version number in 
HKLM/Software/.../Uninstall because of missing permissions. To avoid 
confusing myself I'd like to set the DisplayVersion there to something 
more general (e.g. nothing).

Is this possible somehow (yes, I know, patch MSIs etc., but that's not 
possible here)?

Thanks for your help!

Philipp
