msi self heal

I am trying to make Vendor MSI to self heal. There is a one Parent Feautre which has 3 more sub features and few componenets in them. My shortcut is also advertised but still msi doesn't trigger the self heal process. I am actually trying to copy HKCU for all users. Active setup does the trick but also install the whole application again n also creates Uninstall n Install setup shortcut under the start menu which is why i want my MSI to self heal n copy all the current user registry keys. Any advise on this guys?

Did you set a keypath on the HKCU?

syed,

could you outline in a bit more detail what the feature structure of your MSI is, and in which features the components containing the shortcut and the CU keys are placed?
Reason for this is a self-heal does not blindly repair all features, just the 'tree' in which the triggering advertisement is placed, roughly speaking.
