I have a fairly simple test install built with WiX 3.6.3025.0. It does include the VC90CRTx86 merge module. On Windows 7 I can install and then immediately repair the install without being asked to reboot after the repair. On Windows XP I get asked to reboot after the repair. Here is the part of the log file that seems to indicate the problem:
Action 16:39:58: RegisterProduct. Registering product Action 16:39:58: PublishFeatures. Publishing Product Features PublishFeatures: Feature: ProductFeature PublishFeatures: Feature: VC90CRTx86 Action 16:39:58: PublishProduct.

Return value 1. Action ended 16:39:58: INSTALL. Return value 1. Is this a bug? Is there some way to fix the reboot prompt? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
