Hi Guys,

I found a lot of post on this error but it does not correspond to my case:

I have an msi that I build with wix 3.10 on windows. When I link my project
with the command "light" everything is fine, the msi run fine.

Then I add 10 files, that are about 500mb-1gb each one, I link the project
and I got this error as I run the installer:

"The system cannot open the device or file specified"

So i suspect the error is related on the msi size that is 6gb big. What
could be wrong in this?


Regards,
Rémy
