If I use default version like below <File Id="abc.cnf" DefaultVersion="${var.ProductVersion}" Name="abc.cnf" Source="Files\abc.cnf"/> is asking for language if I specify DefaultLanguage="0" then its giving same below error The DefaultVersion '${var.ProductVersion}' was used for file 'abc.cnf' which has no version. No entry for this file will be placed in the MsiFileHash table. For unversioned files, specifying a version that is different from the actual file may result in unexpected versioning behavior during a repair or while patching. Version the resource to eliminate this warning. C:\test\Product.wxs(308,0): error LGHT0204: ICE03: Invalid version string.
