2009-01-28 Thread Jon Seanor
Hi, Is the FilesInUse dialog just for courtesy, or are there circumstances where WI will cause a rollback if a file is locked open? The application I'm dealing with *always* requires a reboot after upgrade, so it seems unnecessary to popup the FilesInUse dialog. All displaying it will do is, per

[WiX-users] Strange "Privileged" property behavior on Vista

2008-08-28 Thread Jon Seanor
Hi - apologies if this is a repost. I sent this question yesterday but it looks like the list server didn't send it... I've got a launch condition of "Privileged". My installer makes changes to the system (i.e. Program files, system32, etc) All but one of my users doing testing on Vista can inst

One other thing - the PC that the installer fails on was not 'set up' to fail, so I'm really scratching my head over this one. Jon Seanor wrote: > > Hi > > - apologies if this is a repost. I sent this question yesterday but it > looks like the list server did

I might be am wrong, but surely any tool that performs cleanup in a user's profile needs the user's login credentials in order to load their profile. How are you going to get those? msizap only removes the msi database side of the application (i.e. component and feature registration). It does n
