[WiX-users] Uninstallation removes nothing

2011-01-21 Thread Thorsten Tarrach
Hello, I played around with Major Updates and somehow I got into a situation now where none of the files is removed by uninstallation. It is not an error with the package, as the latest version works quite fine on a different machine. It must be something in the registry of that machine. But I

[WiX-users] Display dialog despite LIMITUI

2010-12-21 Thread Thorsten Tarrach
Hi, I generally want the installation to be silent or with the basic UI, except that it should ask the user for a password if that is not specified. So I basically want to display one dialog no matter that LIMITUI is set or that /quiet is specified. How can I force a dialog to open anyway,

Hey, Thanks for your answers. I will just post the WiX Code of the merge module. Maybe that can cast some light on this: http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/2006/wi"; xmlns:iis="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/IIsExtension"; xmlns:util="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/UtilExtension";>

[WiX-users] Having a reference counter for components
