[wix-users] Publisher policy file missing in c:\windows\assembly\tmp folder when adding it through patch.

Sat Oct 12 20:16:02 PDT 2019

Given what I know about patching, I'd guess it's because the module(s)/file(s) associated with the assembly weren't (re)installed when your patch ran.

My suggestion: try incrementing the "file" version of your module(s) before creating your updated MSI/patch. Or, better yet, don't use patching to alter the structure of your installations (and yes, this is a structure alteration in my opinion).

Dear Group,

I have send message to mail group and didn't get same mail as described in subscription configuration which says "*Receive your own posts to the list?*"
by default it is "Yes" and i didn't change it.
So i'm wondering, did anybody get my message or not?

Best regards,
Vladimir Kolobkov
