Thanks Phil, You were correct the Warning shows up in Application Event Log.
I can now see what the problem is. After install finialise I delete two of the files that are in my installer from the local drive when I run a CustomAction. This is whats causing the repair, the two files are missing (they are not needed anymore after the CustomAction has run). I've tried setting Vital to no but the installer still wants to repair. I only need the files for when the CustomAction runs, and don;t want to leave them behind on the local drive. Whats the best way of doing this without triggering the repair?
