Exactly!
That¹s why I tried exactly what you said which made the
CustomMaintenanceWelcomeDlg not show up during uninstall at all. That was
the second problem I described in the first email.
So the new sequence on uninstall was:
WixUI_InstallMode=Remove=1 -> VerifyReadyDlg -> uninstall....etc
I¹m guessing some action triggers MaintenanceWelcomeDlg, but now it¹s not
being referenced (since I overrode it with CustomMaintenanceWelcomeDlg ).
Thus the uninstall process goes straight to the VerifyReadyDlg dialog.
