I too thought I saw a feature request for "files in use" in WixStdBa but I
cannot find it anymore. Maybe it was on the mailing list only. 

I am willing to contribute this feature for the WixStdBa. I've implemented
this for our own projects, but it needs some cleanup and adjustments for the
latest Wix version. I'm little busy lately, but let me know if you guys are
interested.

Regards,
Georg

I'd be a bit surprised if there isn't already a feature request tracking the
issue.

I'm using the WixStdBA as this is (mostly) sufficient for my needs.
Unfortunately this seems to be a rather large drawback.  

I would suppose that many people that do not have the need for special stuff
in the GUI will be using the WixStdBA, so they would run into this issue...

To Rob & Bob:  any objections on creating a bug-request for this?  If not, I
would be doing so...

Tobias

Hi everyone,

I got a small problem during uninstall of my application.

If I install/uninstall just with an MSI on W7 for example, I get the dialog
that some applications must be closed before continuing install.

When I use that MSI within my burn-bootstrapper, this dialog does not
appear.

Do I need to specify "DisplayInternalUI" to be able to see this dialog?  My
MSI does not have any UI otherwise...

Best regards,
Tobias

PS.: All done with Wix 3.8
