Are you using conditions in the install execute sequence?

[WiX-users] SetupAPI InstallHInfSection is not downgrading a driver file in the SYSTEM context
Environment: Windows x86 8.1 English Driver type is file system drivers. I am making use of the SetupAPI:InstallHInfSecton to install drivers. This API is used in my MSI package. When the driver package is installed, the associated .sys file is copied to %windows%\system32\drivers. One of the hotfix packages contains an updated driver package thereby resulting in an updated version of the .sys file being copied to %windows%\system32\drivers. However, when the hotfix is uninstalled, the .sys file under %windows%\system32\drivers is not being reverted back to the base version. i.e in other words, InstallHInfSection is unable to downgrade files in %windows%\system32\drivers. This always used to work properly in Win 7. This has always worked until now. The following lines were logged in setupapi.app log file: !flq: 10:30:50.621 A target file was not overwritten. Version of source file: 7.1.0.4043. Version of target file: 7.1.16.4043. !flq: 10:30:50.621 The SPFQNOTIFY_TARGETNEWER flag was set. Further investigation reveals that InstallHInfSection is unable to downgrade files in **SYSTEM** context. However, it can downgrade files under **Logged in user** context. Strangely, the API works properly on x64 windows 8/8.1. Can anyone think of a reason why would there be a difference in behavior between x86 and x64 versions? Also, is there an alternative API to InstallHInfSection.

[WiX-users] Access installation progress values outside Bootstrapper application
Hi Everyone, I have created a windows application file(say Launcher.exe) which having a button that launches the Custom Bootstrapper application(MySetup.exe) on button click. I would like to show the Bootstrapper installation progress values and status message in that launcher window. MySetup.exe is an installer created by custom Bootstrapper application. Launcher.exe is a Windows application, that launches the MySetup.exe setup. Is it possible to get the Bootstrapper application events run time values in outside the Bootstrapper application? Please share any idea on this.

[WiX-users] Strange behavior of SetupAPI function : InstallHInfSection
Here is a description of the problem: -Environment is Win 7 SP1 Enterprise x64 -We are executing a MSI package which contains numerous INF files. These INF files are associated with drivers. To install the drivers , we make use of the API: InstallHInfSection. The exact usage of InstallHInfSection is as follows: InstallHinfSection( NULL, NULL, INFFile, 0 ); However, what is happening is that, each and every time this API is invoked on a driver INF file, i am presented with a message box with the text: Installation Failed. I inspected the setupapi.app log file and did not find any errors. Everything seems to be fine. The driver .sys file is successfully copied to %windows%\system32\drivers. To confirm is InstallHInfSection works as expected, i executed the following command from outside of the .msi package: RUNDLL32.EXE SETUPAPI.DLL,InstallHinfSection DefaultInstall 128 Strangely, the above command works without any error messages. Do you have any pointers on what could be wrong? I am under tremendous pressure to provide an answer. Any assistance would be very much appreciated.
