I found the problem. MSIINSTALLPERUSER="" is not enough. Only when I set ALLUSERS="1" it's written to HKLM. I expected the dual purpose installer checking the MSIINSTALLPERUSER property and not the ALLUSERS one.

When I initialize my Installer with MSIINSTALLPERUSER="1", the product information is always written to HKEY_CURRENT_USER, even when I set MSIINSTALLPERUSER="" in my dialog. I expected that WiX or msi noticed that I changed to a per-machine installation and would write the product information to HKCU or HKLM accordingly. How do I write the product info to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE if the user chose the per-machine installation?
