I know this has been asked before, but is it possible for a WiX-generated bootstrapper to ignore issues when installing digitally signed files. Error 0x800b010a - An internal certificate chaining error has occurred.
This error can happen if the root certificate is not known. Apparently there are two workarounds. Connect the computer to the Internet or manually install the Update for Root Certificates on Windows XP (KB931125). http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=35945 Before I hear - "Microsoft dropped support for XP what do you think you're doing?" Or "Just connect your computer to the Internet." Let me explain that this is for Windows XP Embedded and Windows Embedded Standard 2009 - both of which are still supported by Microsoft and will be into the future. And connecting to the Internet apparently does not help for Windows Embedded. Also, adding rootsupd.exe to the bootstrapper does not help of course, because we're in a chicken and egg scenario. The verification of certificate happens during the cache and before the first chained package. I would rather not provide a bootstrapper that cannot handle this, or at least be able to strap the update for root certificates first - with the WiX bootstrapper!
