Thanks Lvevi.
My question still lies on how to set DEVENV_RUNNING. A custom C++ DLL
would do the trick – with a quick look up for the process id.
But I was hoping that some diligent sole had already crafted one.

Off the top of my head you could schedule a Custom Action to run before
LaunchConditions I believe and set a property like DEVENV_RUNNING? Then you
could have a:
<Condition Message="Please close devenv.exe before installing.">NOT
DEVENV_RUNNING</Condition>
I haven't tested this, but it seems like it would work.

Hi,
I need to determine if an application (devenv.exe) is not running as part
of an install. Is there any means of doing this within WiX?
Thanks,
Jason
