Off top of my head, dotNetInstaller: doesn't cache, doesn't unify progress bar, doesn't allow complete customization of UI. It's basically a fire-forget type bootstrapper that just shows UI of each thing you're installing. Fact that several of those types of things exist out there is why Burn d

Bundle is just per-user or per-machine. When it per-user it registers in currentuser ARP and when I choose per-machine installation in my msi the different contexts of bundle and msi cause some problems. -- View this message in context: http://windows-installer-xml-wix-toolset.687559.n2.nabble

Or, I'd ask it differently. Why do you want your MSI to own the ARP entry? Just let Burn handle it and you'll get all the benefits of caching and such like that. -Original Message- From: Wesley Manning [mailto:wmann...@dynagen.ca] Sent: Monday, November 25, 2013 1:44 PM To: General disc

Thank you for replay, but it is not my option. I have dual-purpose package which works fine. Now I want to install prerequisites if necessary. What I want that the burn must install prerequisites if necessary, then run the msi dual-purpose package. No need to cache or register the bundle and so. J

If separate components are created for each feature, the registryValue gets removed when any one feature is uninstalled. Instead, I want the registry entry to stay if either feature is installed on the system. The registry entry should be removed only when both the features are uninstalled.
