1. If you are seeing multiple entries in Add/Remove Programs/Features then your upgrade spec in WiX is most likely incorrect. You have something that is changing the ProductCode and making a new product, but it's not detecting the prior product. The other possibility could be that you are trying to do a per user upgrade of a per machine install (or vice versa) but that's not supported. If "every time I install" is more than two times then it won't be this.
2. A ServiceControl element should be used to stop/start the service on install/uninstall. 3. That's the way the MsiRMFilesInUse dialog works. It's not clear to me why you think there should be a cancel choice just because Windows is giving you two ways to go ahead and complete the installation. --------------- Phil Wilson On Wed, Feb 26, 2014 at 12:05 PM, faujong <fiefie.ni...@gmail.com> wrote: > <http://windows-installer-xml-wix-toolset.687559.n2.nabble.com/file/n7592961/afterInstallExecute.jpg> > > > > -- > View this message in context: > http://windows-installer-xml-wix-toolset.687559.n2.nabble.com/How-to-not-copy-a-file-in-subsequent-installations-tp7592929p7592961.html > Sent from the wix-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > Flow-based real-time traffic analytics software.
