If I run the CA as immediate I get an error on uninstall, also when I tried moving the CA in the sequence it errors. I also notice that the files in use check happens before elevation so my CA woudn't have permissions anyway. I could remove the RM Files in use dialog altogether which will then not use RM and fall back to the FileInUse dialog which happens later, but still need to get the CA to run eariler. Where in the sequence would I move the CA to? Before InstallValidate right?
Oter solution is to change the dialog so that it returns immediately, is there a way to do this? I tried adding a publish event to a bitmap control but it doesn't seem to fire. >From: Bob Arnson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >To: Michael Carlisle <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >CC: wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net >Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Uninstall Files in use >Date: Tue, 14 Nov 2006 23:18:09 -0800 > >Michael Carlisle wrote: >>Currently I'm using a deferred CA sequenced after MsiUnpublishAssemblies. >>Where can I sequence this to run before the files in use check?
