A strange scenario.  I think what I'd do is install the per-user installer 
as content when I install the per-machine install.   Then when the per-user 
application get's run, use the content to install the per-user install  for 
the users profile if it's not already installed. I'm not sure I'd need to 
get burn involved at all.

Subject: [WiX-users] Burn/Wix queries


Hi:

I'm currently dealing with an installer that is per-user, and cannot be 
changed to per-machine.

I also have a second installer that is dependent on the per-user 
installer-this is per-machine.

What I need to know is the following:

Is there a way of determining where burn has cached a package (both are 
.exe) after a package has been run for the first time. I know the package 
will have been downloaded as the second (per-machine) will have the 
per-user package embedded in it's payload. I ccarn't be sure that the 
installer won't have been downloaded as the per-user is available from one 
other source. I'm assuming that there is no internet access in the 
per-machine installer.

Secondly what is the best way of installing a burn .exe package silently?

Finally are there any functions to determine whether a package has been 
installed for a specific user feither at a burn, msi or wix level.

Any help appreciated.

Regards

Sean.
