Curiosity. I was setting up a new Windows 10 VirtualBox image to do jpackage. It told me I needed Wix. First I needed dotnet to install wix. I then got a Wix v4. jpackage told me I needed candle.exe and light.exe from v3. I installed v3 but haven’t had a chance to try it. 

However, if v4 isn’t backward compatible with v3 how will jpackage continue to work with this? Or did I miss something in my v4 install?
