windows installer - Visual Studio Setup Project Asking For MSI On Each User Logon -


i have windows application that's installed using visual studio setup project (vs 2010).

the application intended installed users. can install application fine on test vm (windows 7). i'm installing user admin privs. i'm seeing uac prompt , confirming it's ok. i'm selecting option install rather me.

an application shortcut added startup folder, it's meant run on logon.

the application runs great user installed with, when different user logs on vm, following:

msi error

it can't load msi because installed user's desktop, , other users on machine don't have access user's desktop.

why doing this? have similar application install exact same way i've never had prompt me other users. difference i've been able find application adds icon startup folder, other working application not.

i need application installed users after msi installer run.

it appear causing application repaired. repair requiring original source successful , asking location msi installed from.

first thing use event log track down causing repair kick in. should see in event log windows installer tells component guid causing problem. should track down culprit. getting verbose log file helpful. setting msi logging policy can make easy.

to address second issue, you'll need original msi , navigate it. register source msi user can access. in general, recommendation not run installations per-user location. wix toolset bootstrapper/chainer, burn, handles caching packages per-machine location users can see.
