Put both into the same MSI, but under different features. >From your main application, add the "add-on" feature when .net 3.5 is discovered. MsiConfigureFeature() would possibly be a good candidate.

Subject: [WiX-users] How to uninstall other products during uninstallation Hello, I've got following problem... I have got a main application and an add-on tool. The add-on can be installed only if .net framework 3.5 is installed and main application must be able to install the add-on when user updates his system to .net 3.5. My current solution consists of two independent wix/msi packages which are executed from custom bootstrapper application. This setup works fine during installation process, but it has major flaw when it comes to uninstallation. I need to uninstall add-on during the uninstallation of main application, but since these two parts are independent, they have to be uninstalled independently. Is there any way how start or schedule one uninstallation (add-on) during the other (main app)? Thank for any help.
