Sometimes Windows Installer will send you install messages what, when AND'd with INSTALLMESSAGE_TYPEMASK, are not something you recognize. If you return an error (-1) you just failed your transaction and if you return any other non-zero value you just bypassed whatever it was attempting (which is bad, since you don't know what it was attempting). Your default case in your switch statement should always be to return zero.

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Service uninstall fails in Win 7 from Control Panel Hi, Yes i have an EmbeddedUI and in that EmbeddedUI i set a property to suppress "file in use" message and let it continue uninstall (stop service, uninstall, remove service). File is in use because service is started... What can i do? It seems that setting the property from UI doesn't work in Win7. Will it work if i stop the service with a CA ? And after what to set the CA so uninstall can work? Thanks, Adriana On Fri, Dec 18, 2009 at 19:31, Wilson, Phil <phil.wil...@wonderware.com> wrote: > Have you got an embedded UI handler?
