ARP Write Suppression for WIX Burn Bundle

I am creating a WIX Bootstrapper using WIX Burn. The resulting "exe" package will be consumed by another application, or rather the MetaInstaller. The application now runs the package as a process with arguments, but we don't want to make any ARP entries for the package.

Is there a way to achieve this?

Yes. In the Bundle element, set these attributes

<Bundle DisableRemove="yes" DisableModify="yes"

      



DisableRemove

If the " DisableModify " attribute is also "yes" or "button", then the package will not be displayed in programs and functions

It should be noted, however, that WiX burn is a package manager. Therefore, you must ensure that the uninstall process calls it to clean up the package and unused non-persistent packages.
