The complementary tool xml2msi reconstructs the .msi / .msm from the XML file.
There are several possible uses for msi2xml/xml2msi:
- Quality assurance: use the human readable XML file to compare changes between different versions of a .msi file.
- Version control: many version control systems are text based.
