I am new to WiX. I have multiple .exe files supplied by different vendors. I need to combine them together with one more application(.exe) developed by me. I used WiX for my application and created a installer for it (installs developed exe file).

How can I add the pre-existing .exe files into the same installer package so that the resulting package would install all the .exe files along with developed .exe file. Thanks in Advance.

  • Could you show us your current Wix code? – Palle Due Jan 19 '17 at 15:21
  • You need to make use of WiX Bundle: http://wixtoolset.org/documentation/manual/v3/bundle/ – Isaiah4110 Jan 19 '17 at 19:25
  • @Girish, Do you want to install or only deploy (copy) those exe to traget system ? – Ajit Medhekar Jan 30 '17 at 13:21
  • @AjitMedhekar I want to install, I figured it out by using Bootstrapper in WiX. However, I was not able to combine Wix Installer project and Bootstrapper project into one single standalone project. You have any idea on it? – Girish Ramaiah Jan 31 '17 at 13:34
  • No you can not combine both projects, as they are the different projects. But You can create a Bootstrapper project & add/refer your WiX installer project's MSI to it – Ajit Medhekar Jan 31 '17 at 14:21
