We made modifications to the util:PermissionEx element (based upon code by Cody Cutrer) in order to accomplish this:
<CreateFolder util:InheritDacl="no"> <util:PermissionEx User="[USER]" Domain="[DOMAIN]" Type="allow" ApplyToSelf="yes" ApplyToSubfolders="yes" ApplyToFiles="no" Read="yes" ReadAttributes="yes" ReadExtendedAttributes="yes" ReadPermission="yes" Synchronize="yes" Traverse="yes"/> <util:PermissionEx User="[USER]" Domain="[DOMAIN]" Type="allow" ApplyToSelf="yes" ApplyToSubfolders="yes" ApplyToFiles="yes" Read="yes" ReadAttributes="yes" ReadExtendedAttributes="yes" ReadPermission="yes" Synchronize="yes"/> </CreateFolder> One change we made was to key on the component, account, AND the inheritance flags. I need to update our code-base to WiX 3.5, and then I can provide a Mercurial bundle with our changes. I can provide the files from our modified 3.0.4923 if you would like. Thanks, Thomas S.
