I read this thread on how to check for .NET 4.0
http://n2.nabble.com/Using-WiX-with-Net-4-0-td3385006.html.
What I would like to do is check for .NET 3.5 SP1 or greater. How do I
accomplish this?

Is there a property I could check for that is set when either a XP Limited or

You are correct. After further investigation I found this...

I'm not sure I'd trust that. I was on XP with IIS 5.1 and I updated the

Hi all,
I found the source of the problem, and it has nothing to do with WiX at all.
The xml snippet I posted was copied from Internet Explorer (aka "XML

be misleading, since it does not actually display the contents of t
Ideally you'd implement this by extending the current built-in WixUI
Dialog Sets and/or authoring new ones.
Same goes for "Standard" Custom Actions. That is what things like
XMLConfig/XMLFile etc are.
