I'd have to agree that this change in functionality should be optional. As it stands upgrading to 3.5 has changed the way it worked and I now have to sell that change to my users rather than it being transparent (or of course replace the UI with the old one but that involves coding and testing).

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Install skips welcome page Hi, I think that since the installation will run only once or so, the extra click on Next should be not a problem to most users. The fact that the installation behaves differently is more of an issue, this will generate some additional stress to our helpdesk I fear. I think that the entire issue might be off the table when we're using a bootstrapper with interface. In this case the welcome and license dialog might be handled in the bootstrapper. This because you want to present the user the license agreement before the user selects the x86 or the x64 installation, for example. But I think that it should be optional to show the welcome dialog with a Next button or not. I think it shouldn't be that hard to implement a property for it? (And I wouldn't care if it is default on or off, as long as I can put it on or off from my bootrstrapper :) ) Regards, Albert van Peppen ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Increase Visibility of Your 3D Game App & Earn a Chance To Win $500!
