Dynamics GP 2016 Add-in Wix Installer Setup.MSI issue "Microsoft Dynamics GP must be installed on this computer"

Hi

I'm trying to create a wix installer project for Dynamics GP 2016. I've done this before for GP 2013 and 2015 and had no problems with it. Once the installer has been successfully built you as per the provided instructions you use a Setup.msi to run your install. When doing that I get the message "Microsoft Dynamics GP must be installed on this computer in order to install this program."

Installed on my machine is Dynamics GP 2016. The Setup.msi is supplied from installing Dexterity from the install media

Has anyone got an updated Setup.msi file that recognises Dynamics GP 2016?

Thanks in advance

The answer to this is to install Dynamics GP 2016 R2. The 'Setup.msi' file is fixed in this version and works fine.
