Re: [WiX-users] braces need to be escaped in properties?

Check this article on escaping characters in formatted values:

Specifically for your question:

   - Square brackets ([ ]) or curly braces ({ }) with no matching pair are
   left in the text.
   - If a substring is enclosed in curly braces ({ }), and it contains no
   property names enclosed in square brackets ([ ]), the substring is left
   unchanged, including the curly braces.
   - If a substring is enclosed in curly braces ({ }) and it contains one
   or more property names enclosed in square brackets ([ ]) then, if all the
   property names are valid, the text (with the resolved substitutions) is
   displayed without the curly braces.
