Cosmin,
I have finally worked out what is causing this issue, if i dont have the services running of our application, it does not pop up the dialog box.
My guess is that the Windows Installer is verifying that all files are ready to be deleted (ie not locked etc), and if any file is in a state it ...

Re: Close applications dialog
Hi Cosmin,
Thank you for your response, but is there anything we can do about it, as the programs it complains about that are still running have no files in use that we are going to install. I am not sure how it works out that there is files in use that our application does not touch?

How to know when an uninstall is from a build incremented
Hi,
What I would like to acheive is as follows :
As the build machine builds our product, we increment it from ie 3.0.0.1 to 3.0.0.2 However, this is not really an upgrade as such, it is just a testing version, and we would like to just simply overwrite the existing files (except for ones flagged ...

What I would like to acheive is if the os is of version a,b,c these are supported. If the version id defg, we would like to pop up a message stating the ...

Remove UserExit dialog
Hi,
Is it possible to not have the UserExit dialog to not appear if the user cancels the install. Ultimately, the user has already said yes to cancelDlg Dialog, so we feel the install should just close immediately?
Cheers
Jason

optional uninstall file
Hi,
Just wondering how I can make a certain file that was installed, be optional on the uninstall process.
I would like to ask the user a question, and make a decision on whether to remove there database file, or not.
And also on the flip side, if the file already exists (ie upgrading) we dont ...

Cannot update file in Vista
Hi,
I have a custom action that gets executed in the WriteIniValues. It is a DLL, and on XP works like a charm.
However, in Vista, it does not let me alter the files after they have been installed. How should one go about correctly doing this.
Just for the record, the reason for me changing the ...
