Condition the InstallDirDlg Events with "NOT Installed" & it will only show during the first install, not upgrades. See http://neilsleightholm.blogspot.com/2008/08/customised-uis-for-wix.html if you need help modifying the stock WiX UI sets.
As long as you use a RegistrySearch to set INSTALLDIR appropriately it should be fine. If you want to be really slick you could use the INSTALLDIR property to condition whether to show the InstallDirDlg (if it's set by the RegistrySearch, don't show InstallDirDlg).

But it always installs to the default path. Is it a must to show InstallDirDlg always part of upgrade?? ----- Andy MSI Developer Schneider Electric -- View this message in context: http://windows-installer-xml-wix-toolset.687559.n2.nabble.com/Hide-Insta llDirDlg-during-upgrade-tp5014310p5014310.html Sent from the wix-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------ _______________________________________________ WiX-users mailing list WiX-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wix-users ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ WiX-users mailing list WiX-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wix-users
