That error is saying the Component is the KeyPath (thus a Directory) not the file. Something is causing FILE_Rapid to not be the KeyPath.

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Using advertised shortcuts/progid in per user install I would think so too but I can't figure out how to get past the ICE warnings. Since it's per user install in a per user location I can't have the file as the keypath of the component I have to set a registry value as the key path or I get ICE38. But once I do, I get ICE19 and ICE50. To meet ICE38 I have the below but it causes the below errors: ICE19 - 'settings' advertises component: 'CMP_Rapid'. This component cannot be advertised because the KeyPath type disallows it ICE19 - Shortcut: 'SHC_RunConfigExe' advertises component: 'CMP_Rapid'. This component cannot be advertised because the KeyPath type disallows it. ICE50 - Component 'CMP_Rapid' has an advertised shortcut, but the KeyPath cannot be found. <DirectoryRef Id="INSTALL_FOLDER"> <Component Id="CMP_Rapid" Guid="{9373A11C-5A3C-49E3-963D-C19B765A4285}"> <File Id="FILE_Rapid" Source="$(var.FilePath)\Dynagen Configurator.exe" KeyPath="yes"> </File> <Shortcut Id="SHC_RunConfigExe" Name="DYNAGEN Configurator" Description="Opens DYNAGEN Configurator application."

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Using advertised shortcuts/progid in per user install I don't know why it wouldn't be possible. Advertised shortcuts are one of the entry points for repair, and I'm pretty sure repair works fine on per user installs. The process is a potential repair - the shortcut checks that the component target is there, and if not installs it and repairs the parent feature. If it happens to have been a per machine install and another user is now using the product, the repair will see that (for example) a file in user's application data doesn't exist, so it gets installed for that user, the install-on-demand thing. --------------- Phil Wilson On Tue, Feb 11, 2014 at 7:03 AM, Wesley Manning <wmann...@dynagen.ca> wrote: > Can you use advertised shortcuts in a per user install that installs to a per > user location (e.g. LocalAppDataFolder).
