WIX: remove property from log file

I am working on a Wix installer and am running a command with the following command:

msiexec /i MyInstaller.msi /l*v log.log

      

In the installer, I have defined the following property:

<Property Id="SECRETPROPERTY" Secure="yes" Hidden="yes"/>

      

The verbose log file shows the name of the property while hiding its value:

Adding SECRETPROPERTY property. Its value is '**********'.

But apart from its meaning, I also don't want others to know about the existence of the property and therefore not set it. Is it possible to hide the entire property including its name? I want the whole line above to not show up in the log file. How it's done?

Hidden Property Link ( http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/aa370308.aspx )

When the Debug Policy is set to 7, the installer will write the information entered at the command line to the log.



I believe your debug policy is set to 7.
