Hi,
I have a msi that installs 4 services just fine on Windows XP and Windows
7 devices. However on Windows 8 and 8.1, it takes 2 minutes to install one
service amounting to 8 minutes in all for just installing the services. Are
there any parameters I can tweak to improve the msi performance?
A typical service definition looks like this
<Component Id="RunUser" Guid="{..VALUE...}" Location="local" >
<Condition></Condition>
<File Id="RunUser" Source="$(var.RunUser.TargetPath)"
KeyPath="yes"/>
<ServiceInstall Name="SVC" DisplayName="!(loc.DisplayName)"
Description="!(loc.Description)" Start="auto" ErrorControl="ignore"
Type="ownProcess" />
<ServiceControl Id="RunAs" Name="SVC" Start="install" Stop="both"
Remove="uninstall" />
</Component>
thanks!
