I'm new to WIX. I downloaded 3.5 and am using it integrated with VS 2010. I have my first installer working. It just installs two files. I'd like to add a splash screen which can prompt the user to continue/cancel. I've tried following the tutorial, but I can't even seem to get the example using "ConfigurableDirectory" working. Here is my simple wxs file. When I run the msi it simply installs without prompting me for a directory. I actually don't want to let the user pick the directory, I'm looking for a simple splash screen, but I couldn't figure out how to get that working. I've added WixUIExtention as a Reference in the project as well, but still no prompt for a directory. What am I doing wrong?
