I'm not sure what you require by way of an example. In my observations... - Make an MSI package of several features/components. - Make a bootstrapper for your MSI with "setup" in the name. - Install the package. - Run the setup on Vista, select Repair and save the log file (automatically created

Hi Bob, Thanks for your info, but how do you make Component properties 'secure' so that the server side can use them? I may have used the wrong termiollogy there... I mean that the location of each component is listed as a "Property Change" on installs where I get the UAC prompt, but disallowed

Hi Rob, I've started to see some peculiar results due to priveledge issues on Vista and found myself back in this thread. I find, as I think you have, that once the app in question is installed, the elevation being passed to the client side of the install differ greatly depending on how you chos

That's what I'm doing. My bootstrapper runs with asInvoker elevation requirements. The UAC happens when Windows Installer changes from client-side to server-side during the install. I also find that running an MSI directly doesn't show the UAC prompt until it switches to the server-side.

I find that the msi file extension tells Vista that the process requires elevation and you get the UAC prompt before the UI Sequene begins. Therefore, by the time you get to your 'Install' button with the potential to display your UAC Shield, the install doesn't require elevation (as it all ready

I'm still not sure I get it. I don't see why MsiRunningElevated is set so early on uninstall, especially since it obviously isn't. It gives you a UAC prompt later on. As for the link you sent me, I didn't really see anything that explains what I'm seeing. Rob Stefan Pavlik wrote: > Stefan

Hi Rob, I have the same experience with Repair and Remove buttons. But I think it is due to MsiRunningElevated property. If you check the logs you will see that during first installation this property is set after you confirm the elevation prompt (from the server side - 'MSI (S)' is in the beginn
