Is it real to create the custom action, that checks rewrite access to file
before each copy operation during product installation ?
I need to show dialog with locked file name. Information about running
application is not obligatory.
For example simple dialog:
----------------------------------------------
File "c:\MyProgram\lib.dll" is locked !
----------------------------------------------
[Retry] [Abort]
----------------------------------------------
