Set title in WIX MSI description

How do I change the text "Installation Database" in Title properties in WIX ?

Solution

  • The Title property of the Summary Information stream cannot be set by pure WiX facilities. That is discussed in this thread.

    Note that by default the Title property holds the information about the type of the installation package: "Installation Database" (MSI), "Transform" (MST) or "Patch" (MSP). It is still possible to modify this property with the Msiinfo.exe utility. Microsoft recommends keeping predefined phrases for different types of packages in.
