PS: Thank you for dogfooding. Based on your comment below, I take it you were not around in the days of WiX v2.0. Back then things were still pretty raw, there was basically no documentation, error messages were near uselss and we were still figuring out the best way to solve some key problems.
The pioneers of those days helped us get to the product you see today in WiX v3.5 and WiX v3.6 (minus Burn). Thanks for testing out the cutting edge of WiX v3.6. If it gets to be too much, you can always go back to WiX v3.5 and wait for us to get WiX v3.6 production ready. Of course, it is always possible we'd miss a bug that is core to some scenario you have and we'd queue the issue to be addressed in WiX v3.7 (or WiX v4.0). The cutting edge is named incredibly appropriately. <grin/> On Thu, Apr 26, 2012 at 2:44 PM, Rob Mensching <r...@robmensching.com> wrote: > I don't see the Reinstall in the log file.
