Pehaps this is more of a Windows Installer question than WiX but I authored my installer using WIX 3 so I am posting here.
I have an patched installation where only some of the features are installed. When I remove the patch through add/remove programs or a call to msiexec, the default features get installed. I do not know why this is. I suspected that this may have something to do with INSTALLLEVEL, but I read that this property has no effect in maintenance mode. The default INSTALLLEVEL for each of the features is 1. I am assuming removing a patch is in maintenance mode and the log does say "Product registered: entering maintenance mode." I did find the lines: MSI (s) (B8:E0) [07:54:18:616]: PROPERTY CHANGE: Adding REINSTALL property. Its value is 'Server'. MSI (s) (B8:E0) [07:54:18:616]: PROPERTY CHANGE: Adding ADDLOCAL property. Its value is 'Client'. that shows that it is adding the client feature, which is not installed. What's the best way around this problem?
