For info it is working for me, I can open an existing project which then upgrades and create a new one.

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Wix fails to register with VS 2005 Done :) Bug id: 3536160 I took a quick look at the log ' WiX_Toolset_v3.6.3014.0_20120619113652_3_nsdk2005.msi.log' and found this message right near the end: MSI (s) (54:D8) [11:41:16:257]: Product: WiX Toolset v3.6 Native 2005 SDK -- Installation completed successfully. So, does this mean that WiX thinks that it installed correctly, or is there another possible point of failure? -Naim -----Original Message----- From: Rob Mensching [mailto:r...@robmensching.com] Sent: Tuesday, 19 June 2012 4:05 AM To: chr...@iswix.com; General discussion for Windows Installer XML toolset. Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Wix fails to register with VS 2005 Nope, not yet. Feedback was to not cut it. It *should* work but I haven't personally tried lately. Can you provide the WiX toolset install log from your %TEMP% folder and put the information in a bug to track the issue?
