Question

@robmen fix your 6.0.2 man there is no WixToolset.UI.wixext.dll , even i downloaded the nupkg renamed it to zip, extracted inside the bin folder but still can't use it been getting issues like

: error WIX0094: The identifier 'WixUI:WixUI_InstallDir' is inaccessible due to its protection level.
error WIX0005: The Wix element contains an unexpected child element 'Product'.
error WIX0048: The document element name 'Package' is invalid. A WiX source file must use 'Wix' as the document element name.

error WIX0199: The Wix element has an incorrect namespace of 'http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/2006/wi'. Please make the Wix element look like the following: .

for the WIX0199 i did changed & added this special line

Still there are issues like : error WIX0094:

Fix this god damn v6.0.2 man. This is so annoying , im going back to Inno Setup as this shit ain't working , added to PATH too in system variable Path etc done., but your thing isn't working, and you removed the ISSUES on this REPO why ?

### I even tried a minimal version of this (.wxs) file and still it won't compile, when i say minimal i meant without any logo, branding, without making users to click Agree or subscribe button, etc etc

You seem very confused about how to use the modern WiX Toolset. You don't directly reference the .dll any longer, just use the extension which is available via NuGet (you don't crack open the .nupkg).

@YashvirGaming WiX v6.0.2 has over 100,000 downloads to date. It's the version I use for all my work. It works for most people.

That doesn't say that you didn't hit a bug. But the steps you provided indicate you are using WiX incorrectly. For example, you don't directly reference WixToolset.UI.wixext.dll in modern WiX. You reference the WixToolset.UI.wixext as a "WiX Extension" (which is expected to be wrapped up a .nupkg). You have bad instructions from somewhere that have sent you down a path that does not work.

Also, I tried @PaganoDanteDaniel's code, and it worked once I removed the Compile items from the .wixproj. In modern .wixprojs, you don't list the individual .wxs files anymore. Even with that, I never reproduced the error provided in the message, and I do not see how the provided code can hit that error message.
