Hello Advanced Installer Team,
I'm looking for creating an installer that will check for a list of prerequisites, show custom dialogs, install application and do some custom actions.
To achieve this, the possibility, I see is to have a hybrid setup - EXE bootstrapper (for prerequisites), MSI (for custom dialogs and custom actions) and MSIX (for the application to benefit the MSIX features). Is this the optimal approach or is there a better way to do this?
Regards,
Shobz

Re: Hybrid Installation
Hello Shobs,
Unfortunately, as you may know, MSIX is pretty limited as for this moment.
Yes, the approach you have presented is the optimal one. Actually, it may be the only approach currently available for what you are trying to achieve.
Best regards,
Catalin
