Question on populate the MsiFileHash table for all unversioned fil

dotnet setup:

Hi there,

In order to prevent my patch from requiring access to the original
installation source, I need populate the MsiFileHash table for all
unversioned files. When I used Msifiler.exe to populate the MsiFileHash
table, it only works for the administrative install image but not for the
original package. I got messages of "Failed to locate file ..." when I tried
to populate the original package. How to do this for the original package
because this will be the install package.

Thanks.

I guess you need to have the files uncompressed so that MsiFiler can compute
the hash.
