I use WiX 3.5. My installer should enable both per-user and per-machine installation. I would like to achieve that by using radio buttons ("Everyone" and "Just me").
I found a couple of references on the Internet:
- Selecting current-user or all-users install: Adding a user interface, part of Yet Another WiX Tutorial - Part 2 - Adding the UI.
- Set the ALLUSERS property to an empty string: Using WiX 3.0 to create a per-user MSI that does not prompt for elevation on Windows Vista
If I understand that correctly my installer should set ALLUSERS property to 1 for per-machine installation and to "" (empty string) for per-user installation.
My problem is no matter what I try ALLUSERS is always set to 1. Even when I don't set it at all!
Here is a couple of things I tried:
<Control Id="UserSelection"
Type="RadioButtonGroup"
X="26"
Y="115"
Width="305"
Height="45"
Property="ASSISTANCE_USERS"
Text="ASSISTANCE_USERS">
<RadioButtonGroup Property="ASSISTANCE_USERS">
<RadioButton Value="cur"
X="0"
Y="0"
Width="295"
Height="16"
Text="Just me" />
<RadioButton Value="all"
X="0"
Y="20"
Width="295"
Height="16"
Text="Everyone" />
</RadioButtonGroup>
</Control>
and then setting the ALLUSERS based on ASSISTANCE_USERS:
<Publ开发者_StackOverflow社区ish Property="ALLUSERS"
Value="{}">ASSISTANCE_USERS = "cur"</Publish> <!-- set null value -->
<Publish Property="ALLUSERS"
Value="1">ASSISTANCE_USERS = "all"</Publish>
However, ALLUSERS is always 1.
I also tried just setting ALLUSERS to an empty string:
<Property Id="ALLUSERS" Secure="yes"/>
This should set ALLUSERS to "", yet it stays "1"
Once I'm able to set ALLUSERS, I should be able to use HKMU for per-user and per-machine installtion.
Check a verbose log (using /l*vx): MSI logs every property change so you can see when ALLUSERS is being set.
