I know we can configure a Launch Condition to check for the existence of
another installed product before installing, but is there a way to enforce
or at least warn the user if they later attempt to uninstall the
prerequisite (especially if we author the prerequisite)?

I guess there could be a launch condition specific to uninstallation, but I
can't think how it would work - from what I can tell, there is no easy way
to increment or decrement a registry value as a custom reference count of
dependent MSIs, and the built-in reference counts only work for retaining
specific components.

Or, how do you increase a reference count on a component (or file or other
item) that you aren't currently installing?

Thanks.
