IIRC, I believe this is the VS CRT failing (i.e. hasn't even loaded our code yet). Minimum supported OS is XP SP3 and last 2003 SP as well. Frustrating that is the route the VC++ team chose but we don't have a lot of choice, except to use an older CRT that doesn't have all the same security updates (i.e. not a good choice)

(At the very least, I found several saying the same thing) The point was that I was (sort of) expecting the burn engine to have a code path which didn't try to call this function if the OS happens to be Windows XP/Server 2003 RTM. If that's not possible because it's statically linked or something, or it's deemed not worth fixing then that's OK because we don't actually support XP ourselves, we just would have preferred a better error -- View this message in context: http://windows-installer-xml-wix-toolset.687559.n2.nabble.com/Dec-tp7599178p7599181.html Sent from the wix-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Dive into the World of Parallel Programming.
