make it easy to provide this information to end users. The following reports are
available:
Package Contents Summary

registry keys, shortcuts, file associations, and merge modules. You can generate
this report for .WSI, .MSI, .WSM, and .MSM files.

Contains the same information as the Package Contents Summary report, but
arranges it by feature. You can generate this report for .WSI and .MSI files.
