Error when upgrading prereq that forces reboot
Hello, I have an installer (v1.0.0) with two "Feature-based" prereqs (also v1.0.0). These prereqs were each set to "Force Reboot after install", but I'd been passing the /norestart flag to suppress this. I'm creating v2.0.0 of the installer (with v2.0.0 of each prereq). I made so...

Re: Feature-based prereq does not wait for child prereq to install
Thank you for the additional information. In creating a sample project, I realized that perhaps the /passive flag for the prereqs contributed to the behavior I'm seeing.

Table Editor - Custom Action Type Values
When debugging problems with my installers, I occasionally come across a post that mentions changing the `Type` column for a Custom Action in the Table Editor, but I can't seem to find much information on what this Type value means. Is there a resource out there that defines what values can appear i...
