[wix-users] UAC dialog icon

[Hoover, Jacob]

I don't think you can for a MSI.  If it was a bundle then you have control over it, but since the process requesting elevation is msiexec and not your MSI, you will get the default icon from msiexec.  In the previous version of your install, was it a bundle or some other 3rd party installer like installshield which used an exe to package their MSI?

Is this a MSI or a Bundle?

With a previous version of my installer, the UAC elevation dialog would display our application's icon. In the current build it is only displaying a generic icon.

I have 2 <Icon> elements, one for ARPPRODUCTICON (which refers to an ICO file) and one for a shortcut (which refers to an EXE). ICO and EXE have both changed between versions but otherwise <Icon> elements are unchanged.

The previous version would have been built with WiX v3.7 or 3.8; I am currently using v3.9.

It's only a cosmetic issue but it would be nice to show our icon: any idea why it might have "gone away" or how I can get it back?

Thanks
