Windows Installer is quite limited and refreshing/repopulating controls is one
of those that all to often doesn't work the way we want.
Usually the way this is implemented is to have two paired boxes, where the
value(s) in the first box are used in a custom action to populate the second
box's
You can host your ui in the bootstrapper ask all the questions, then install
sqlexpress if needed then run your msi with relevant properties to install the
services/populate the database.

I am using WixStdBA in Wix 3.8 with a BAFunction.DLL (which is similar to
using the Extended BA in Wix 3.7).
In the BAFunction DLL (under a debugger) I can use this-> to access member
variables including this->pEngine. But I am trying to drill down and check
what was passed in on the command line
If using the WixStdBA in 3.8 (or with Wix 3.7 AND the WixExtendedBA from
http://wixextba.codeplex.com/) you may find it helpful to use the
BAFunctions.DLL. As others have indicated you could ask the questions in
the WixStdBA, process the selected radio button on OnPlanComplete, and

Hello, you are right.
The shortcut is located in the "recently used" area. This is what I don.t
understand. Why it appears if it is never used?
Thanks a lot.

You'd probably need a custom BA to do all that. There are probably easier
ways to accomplish what you are trying to do as well.

Looks like a (long-lived) bug to me. Validation indicates that 0 is acceptable,
but the compiler rejects 0. Please open a bug.
In reality, as long as no one adds another entry with sequence set to "0" then
your entries with sequence set to "1" will remain the default entries.

I suspect the DLL was partially signed, not fully signed. Try running sn -vf
against your shell extension assembly dll.
What version/build of WiX toolset are you running?

Is it really in the root of the start menu? Meaning, you click Start, then you

The primary difference I see between these two is that the

If there are no missing lines in the section of log, this suggests that the MSI

If you already have the WiX toolset installed, you can also use the wix.chm
("WiX Documentation" in the Start menu).
