Hi All, After doing some searching, it seems that the general understanding is that Windows Installer does a poor job with exit codes returned when an MSI does not complete "successfully" for some reason. A case that we have encountered is where we are preventing downgrades for our install packages. When we encounter this, Windows installer returns a 1603 error code. I can understand some type of error code being returned being that the install did not "complete" successfully. However, 1603 seems to be a pretty common error code, and in some cases it is impossible to determine if the downgrade logic was encountered, or if actually something "bad/fatal" happened that caused the 1603 code.
Is it possible to instruct Windows Installer to return a specific error code? For instance, in our downgrade scenario, would it be possible to exit with a different code instead of the 1603?
