In general, you mark the return value from the CA as "check" so that the install will not continue. Your code can call Win32 MsiProcessMessage to display an explicit error if required.
However that error result is 259. That is the standard "error" result back from APIs that enumerate items, and it just means that they have all been enumerated. In other words that code is incorrect because 259 is not a real error in these cases. It's saying you can't have the next one because there are no more. --------------- Phil Wilson On Thu, Apr 23, 2015 at 4:15 AM, RonnyS <ronnys.cod...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hello I have a problem with a Installation that do deinstall a old version > of the programm and install the new one. > > The old installation checks if Internet Explorer is opened and show a > Dialog to close it. > If you select Yes, the Internet Explorer is closed and the old installation > will be uninstalled.
