I've just switched from our own custom action (calling a DLL function)
to using DIFxApp with WiX. I've found that I have to leave the
DriverPlugAndPlayPrompt set to "yes", or the install will fail on
Vista if my USB device isn't plugged in when the install runs.
However, almost as bad, I've found that on Vista, with this prompt
enabled, the prompt shows up entirely hidden behind the Windows
Installer UI, which leaves the user with only the Cancel button
enabled and a hidden prompt. This is definitely going to mess up a lot
of our customers.
I realize that this question is on the fine line between DIFx and WiX,
but I'm hoping that there is a workaround in WiX, or perhaps someone
with experience with using DIFx in WiX that can help with this
issue: How do I make the DriverPlugAndPlayPrompt either display in
FRONT of my UI, or not at all on Windows Vista?
That's usually caused by using the wrong parent window. There's nothing
WiX can do about it but it might be a bug in DifxApp they can fix by
getting the right parent window.
