Removing Files With Missing or Invalid Source
Paths
Windows Installer Editor Reference
The contents of these tables are current as of this product's release. You can update
these tables as follows:
Edit WiseVistaIce.cub directly.
Rebuild the tables by running the GetWRPItems.exe utility, which is installed in the
bin subdirectory of this product's installation directory. Run it from the command
prompt on a computer that is running the Windows Vista or later operating system
and specify the full path to WiseVistaIce.cub. Example:
The GetWRPItems.exe utility deletes the contents of both tables and rebuilds them
based on the WRP information on your computer. Because the edition of the
Windows Vista or later operating system that is installed might affect the contents of
the rebuilt files, run the utility on the edition of the operating system that your
installations target.

When you compile an installation that contains files with missing or broken source
paths, the compile fails. The Remove Missing Files tool reduces compile errors by
searching an installation for such files and letting you remove those files from the
installation. If you decide to leave a file in the installation, you can fix its source path.
Paths to files in an installation can break if you:
Move files that are part of the installation to a new directory on your computer or
network.
Move the installation file itself from your computer to another computer.
Use relative paths and then move the installation file.
Rename a directory.
To remove files with missing or broken source paths

The Welcome page appears.
2.
Click Next.
The installation is searched and the Results page appears.
3.

4.
If you ran this tool from the Tools menu, the Compile This Installation check box
appears when the removal process finishes. Clear the check box to continue without
