Your saying no need to do a search if the product is installed or not.. Burn will auto detect that? How?
There isn't much documentation regarding burn :( Steve -----Original Message----- From: Rob Mensching [mailto:r...@robmensching.com] Sent: January-03-13 5:13 PM To: General discussion for Windows Installer XML toolset. Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Installing 32-bit and 64-bit components in same bundle If you're using MSI packages, you shouldn't need to detect that the MSIs are already installed (Burn will do that for you). You could have one condition and just use "VersionNT64". Also, detecting MSIs installed using the ProductCode in the ARP registry key seems really wrong. util:ProductSearch would be more appropriate (although should still be unnecessary in this scenario).
