Is there a way to solve this error without creating a new setup project?

Thank you

Hi Thomas,

Please send me the 'Product.wxs' file of the WiX setup project to the support e-mail. I will check it.

Hi Thomas,

Yes, I received your e-mail and replied you. Please check your inbox.
The issue may occur if you move the setup project to another location on your PC. Did you change the location of the setup project?
