Describing the Bundle element

The Bundle element has several attributes at its disposal for describing what eventually gets shown in Programs and Features. When the end user installs a Burn bundle, it will be added as an entry in the programs list. This presents a single point at which a piece of software and all of its dependencies can be uninstalled or repaired. The advantage of this design is that it simplifies these tasks for the user.

The following snippet sets these attributes:

<Bundle Name="Awesome Software" 
        Version="1.0.0.0" 
        Manufacturer="Awesome Company"
        HelpTelephone="123-456-7890" 
        HelpUrl="http://www.mydomain.com/help" 
        UpdateUrl="http://www.mydomain.com/update"
        AboutUrl="http://www.mydomain.com/about" 
        ... >
