Wix Bundle prompting for setup.

[mtissington]

I have an odd problem and not sure what has triggered it.

When we sign the bundle it fails and continuously prompts for the install exe.

I see this might be related https://github.com/orgs/wixtoolset/discussions/7071
Any ideas please?

A little more information .. if I don't sign the final bundle it installs correctly.

And here is the log file and wix bundle
