Setting condition field for "Display Message Box" custom action doesn't seem to work, if condition is evaluated to be false, an empty OK message box still appears. Is this a known issue for version 12.4?

Is there a way to skip prerequisite installation via command line arguments?

smljoju

Please note that you can run the related .EXE after a post-install prerequisite. Just make sure you schedule the custom action that launch the .EXE file after the Finish Execution stage from the Wizard Dialogs Stage. I have already tried this, this works without issues when NOT doing silent install...
