Attributes​

After (String) : Id of the search that this one should come after.

Condition (String) : Condition for evaluating the search. If this evaluates to false, the search is not executed at all.

DisableFileRedirection (wxs:YesNoTypeUnion) : When set to "yes" and the running bundle is 32-bit, Wow64DisableWow64FsRedirection is called before starting the search.

Id (String) : Id of the search for ordering and dependency.

Path (String) : File path to search for.

Result (enumeration) : Rather than saving the matching file path into the variable, a FileSearch can save an attribute of the matching file instead. This attribute's value must be one of the following:

  • exists: Saves true if a matching file is found; false otherwise.
  • version: Saves the version information for files that have it (.exe, .dll); zero-version (0.0.0.0) otherwise.

Variable (String, required) : Name of the variable in which to place the result of the search.
