Not possible. Limitation of MSI handling during uninstall. DisplayInternalUI
only shows for install.

Subject: [WiX-users] Custom Managed Boostrapper
Hi everyone,
Presently, I'm working with a Managed Bootstrapper with its own UI written
in WinForms (.Net 2.0 based). It is able to install my msi using
DisplayInternalUI="yes" and "no" very well.
However, from Add-Remove programs, it display nothing, but uninstall
silently.
If you don't believe it.. Try it out. We hit this all the time if we aren't
careful to make sure that we wait for services to stop on uninstall. Even if
we ask the service to stop, if we make it asynchronous the delete can happen
while the service is still shutting down, so files are in use.
Can somebody else confirm this can happen? Upgraded in-use files
disappearing on reboot sounds like something so serious that Windows
Installer wouldn't have been released with such an issue. And
otherwise we would be hearing about it all the time.

This was indeed very helpful. I started using conditions such as (&Feature = 3)

Big improvement in WiX script structure comparing to what I inherited.

Hi everyone,
I just released a new MSI for an upgraded version of one of our in house

of this, so each new one is a full package with a MajorUpgrade) and all the
rest have been successful, until today. One file did

controlled by the BA or Bundle authoring). The BA is in control of UI. There

I have a project that builds 7 msi and then creates mst transform files for

I then have a burn bootstrapper that has one msipackage with

If it is not possible technically, then the idea is finished.
If it is possible, then the next logical step is to talk with "the

The CP210x driver is a onn-msi difx API/setup API application. Silicon Labs
has application notes which explain how to install these drivers in a

The other thing to watch for - based on the file name, it looks like
you're trying to run an installer. If that is MSI-based, you can't do that.
And I'd be a little concerned about your requirement to run in the
foreground. What happens if the installation is run as silent (no UI)?

No. The Windows Installer Service controls (and by extension the dialogs) are
not extensible in this manner--unless you have the rights to re-write the
Windows Installer Service.
You can: 1) write a custom, embedded UI (described as very hard on this list);
or 2) customize Burn (the preferred
That would be cool but I'm going to hold off until I'm fighting with the next
one. This one is doing what I want. I'd say each time I make an MSI you guys
teach me something else.

Hi all,
I'm using the Burn bootstrapper app to chain my main installer with several
pre-requisites (.NET, VC++ runtime). For the GUI I use the standard
RtfLicense UI as described in Nick Ramirez's Wix Guide book.
The standard strings in the progress bar step can be changed (localized)
easily. But
