wix4: HarvestDirectory and LocalAppDataFolder

[micktonnelier]

Hello,

I do not able to use HarvestDirectory with LocalAppDataFolder installation.
For my project, I used HarvestDirectory for retrieve all assets files (and sub-assets file) that were generated automatically.
I don' t have any problem, if my target installation is on ProgramFiles6432Folder. Everythink works fine (upgrade and uninstall too).

But now, I want to be able to install my app without admin privilege, so I changed the target to LocalAppDataFolder and now...
I have +400 errors like this:
error WIX0204: ICE64: The directory dirqk5NfPX27WaAgtTfBL6WgpZ9x4I is in the user profile but is not listed in the RemoveFile table.
or like that:
error WIX0204: ICE38: Component cmpyy05vabdgfiy9dwGgGBnBY.fdCw installs to user profile. It must use a registry key under HKCU as its KeyPath, not a file.
The name was generated by HarvestDirectory, that ok. But I tried many combination of RemoveFolder/RemoveFile but none of them works.

Does somebody can help me ?

Currently, It's work with that, but I'd prefer another solution.

<SuppressIces>ICE64;ICE38;ICE91</SuppressIces>

yes, this way can work. I'm also searching for another way to resolve it.

I try to change the xslt file to add RegistryKey tag under every File tag. but it requires me can't use Guid='*'. and I don't know how to set a guid value for the Guid attribute by myself.

Those are ICE errors. The ICEs come from the Windows Installer team. They provide some additional documentation, like ICE64.
