The “Byte Order Mark” it removed from files when WiX XML edits are applied to them.
This causes some Dot Net programs to fail.

    Looks like MSXML is just tossing the byte order mark by default. This could be a tricky bug to fix.

    MSXML is dropping this character. The source document should include the encoding prior to edits. This should prevent the failures.
