After an hour of Googling, I can't see how to disallow silent installs.
The default WiX installs allow you to specify \q to MSIEXEC.EXE and you
get a silent install. However, that allows you to skip checking the
license agreement option, which my client doesn't like. What's the WiX
magic I need to do to not allow my install to be run in silent mode. I
tried a condition of UILevel=5, which worked for installs, but would
never allow an uninstall (thank goodness for MSIZAP!).
MsiZap?! <shudder> You use VMs, right?<g>
Try "UILevel=5 OR Installed" instead. That'll let the ARP uninstall happen.
Of course, one benefit, er, side-effect of using structured-storage
files for the MSI database is that anyone can use Orca on it...even
without reading a EULA...
And I'd be remiss if I didn't point out that not supporting silent
installs breaks a lot of QA and SMS scenarios...
