Re: Multiple uninstallation icons

Hello!

Yes - I have red the article carefuly and tried to follow the rules - the installation is based on an old installation version.

Removing the custom rules checkbox seems to solve the multiple un-install - icons problem!

Prevent custom action running if a feature is not installed

Hello!
Beeing a newbie here I may be asking a self evident question... however I cannot figure out this:

I have three optional features in my installation
If user de-selects one of the features, one of the custom actions should not run either.

How to accomplish this?
