Re: [WiX-users] LaunchConditions on a REG_DWORD returned from a RegistrySearch

Sounds similar to a problem I recently encountered when looking for a decent bootstrapper to use with WiX. I'd suggest duplicating the search anyway (since corporate environments usually require an MSI for deployment). The difference will be that the MSI just throws an error and tells the user to
