v1.6.1

This release has a fix and a minor new enhancement:

  • #84 Didn't release all the necessary file handles and could cause errors like Wixtracts.ExtractFiles keeps msi Record handles open - Thanks for the PR @ramiabughazaleh!
  • #82 You can now enter a path in the "File" textbox on the main GUI screen and press enter and it will open a file browser dialog at the path you entered.

As always, I recommend you install via Chocolatey here.

v1.6.0

  • #80 New! Can now view the embedded OLE Structured Storage Streams inside the msi file. See the new Streams tab.
  • #78 Fixes an issue with the putty installer (that may well afflict other wix-created installers) that does not have an accessible _Streams table.
  • #79 Changed the ctrl+c/copy to clipboard behavior for tables to copy them as tab-delimited with a header row to make them easier to paste into Excel.

As always, I recommend you install via Chocolatey here.
