-test_file.txt
- test_file.txt
Project Wix msi structure:
ExampleComponents.wxs
<Wix xmlns="http://wixtoolset.org/schemas/v4/wxs">
<Fragment>
<ComponentGroup Id="ExampleComponents" Directory="INSTALLFOLDER">
<Files Include="d:\TestFolder\\**" />
</ComponentGroup>
</Fragment>
</Wix>
Folders.wxs
<Wix xmlns="http://wixtoolset.org/schemas/v4/wxs">
<Fragment>
<StandardDirectory Id="AppDataFolder">
<Directory Id="INSTALLFOLDER" Name="!(bind.Property.Manufacturer) !(bind.Property.ProductName)" />
</StandardDirectory>
</Fragment>
</Wix>
Package.wxs
<Wix xmlns="http://wixtoolset.org/schemas/v4/wxs">
<Package Name="Package1" Manufacturer="TODO Manufacturer" Version="1.0.0.0" UpgradeCode="73bfa418-131d-4c11-b8db-3357de780149">
<MajorUpgrade DowngradeErrorMessage="DowngradeError" />
<Feature Id="Main">
<ComponentGroupRef Id="ExampleComponents" />
</Feature>
</Package>
</Wix>
Note: change in Folders.wxs to ProgramFiles6432Folder for example all works as expected project build without errors and files structure zipped into .msi
