Thanks Rob! After discussing with our product architecture it's acceptable to have this FileInUse dialog though it's weird.
I also wander how to add the option into that Dialog because I only refer that Dialog to my wxs but cannot modify the definition. <UI> <DialogRef Id="FilesInUse"/> </UI If that has lots of work to do, I will leave it as it is. Thank all of you for your kindly helps!
