[wix-users] Wix Burn: Rollbackboundary was discarded?

I would expect NetFx451Redist and VC_ReDist_120 to be permanent.  If I did not have another package that was not permanent prior to the RollbackBoundary then I don't use a RollbackBoundry.  I only use a RollbackBoundary after other non-permanent packages, because of the issues that I have observed when all of the packages prior to the RollbackBoundary were marked as Permanent.

Hi Phil, Thanks for reply.
Yes, both are marked Permanent. I will try without Permanent attribute then
