'WiX: This feature will be installed to run from network

WiX.

How does work this variant of the feature installing? How can I disable it? I see nothing about it here. My admin told to me that he nothing knows about it too.

wix windows-installer

You probably need to set InstallDefault to local in the Feature element, but it would help to see the WiX for the features involved.

Solution 2:^[2]

Because this is an issue also in 2022, here one solution:

Inside your <Feature> add an empty <ComponentRef Id="yourFeatureId"/>

Ensure, that this referenced Component resist inside your TARGETDIR. This prevent the Network-target.

Example:

<DirectoryRef Id="TARGETDIR">
        <Component Id="yourFeatureId" Guid="{C8F07DC5-50C6-450E-A398-A520735FC5A9}" />
</DirectoryRef>

Works in my Project :-)
