The simplest fix is to upgrade to WiX 3.5. Neil Neil Sleightholm X2 Systems Limited n...@x2systems.com <mailto:n...@x2systems.com>

I've seen a number of suggestions to do this as a fix, including a comment on a changeset for WiX. Specifically this: BobArnso: Default WixUICostingPopupOptOut to 1, to avoid the CostingComplete MSI bug. Opt in to the costing dialog by setting WixUICostingPopupOptOut to 0. My question is, is that all that needs to be done? Is there some other compensating action that needs to be addde? What is the effect of potentially trying to continue with the installation if this action is still running? Does it just pause while the action completes? The issue is very intermittent, so confirming a fix is near impossible.
