standard wix UI extensions.
And adding WIXUI_EXITDIALOGOPTIONALCHECKBOX

condition?Can't i achieve this functionality when using the WiX standard UI

It's in the loc string. Override it in your own .wxl file -- all the
WixUI loc strings are marked Overridable="yes".

You could put a Condition element under the Product element like this:

When you call msiexec from the exe be sure to pass RUNFROMEXE=1 as an argument.
