I am new to WiX.
I am able to create a Desktop shortcut.
I tried to create a menu shortcut that will show up under the "All
Programs", but when I compile the program, I get errors "The directory WIX
is in the user profile but is not listed in the RemoveFile table." and "An
error occurred while validating. HRESULT = '8000000A'".
I also get warnings "Component 'WIXVBShortcut' has both per-user and
per-machine data with an HKCU Registry KeyPath." and "Mismatched component
reference. Entry 'ApplicationStartMenuShortcut' of the Shortcut table
belongs to component 'WIXVBShortcut'. However, the formatted string in
column 'Target' references file 'WIXVB.exe' which belongs to component
'ProductComponent'. Components are in the same feature.".
How can I create both Menu shortcut and Desktop shortcut ?
Thank you.
