[wix-users] Support for multiple installed copies of Visual Studio

That’s why I filed the issue in the first place. Wix3.8 doesn’t support all
of the versions of VS I have installed, and it's not working.
Anyway, I think we've beat this horse to death. You can kill this thread.

I've got them all from VS 2010 to VS 2015.  As long as WiX is installed and
supported on all versions at the same time, it all works well enough.

The e-mail below is from an external source.  Please do not open attachments
or click links from an unknown or suspicious origin.

I don't know why VS2015 would affect the install in the other VS's. Have you
looked at the WiX log files in %TMP%? If you have a set of machines
repro'ing the issue there should be something common across them.

As I mentioned in the initial email, I cannot control the version of wix
toolset  at this time.  It could be configuration, but it is affecting all
developers in our group. Common is that we all have 3 latest versions of VS
installed, and are trying to install version 3.8 of the toolkit. Developers
in remote location where it works only have VS 2012 installed. I would hate
to have to go through the process of uninstalling 2015 to see if that fixes
it without knowing, but may have to.
