Hi,
I've got 2 msi-Setups.
Setup "A" is to be installed during the installation of setup "B" if the program "A" has not been installed or an older version is installed.
I find no suitable way to realize this.
If I define Setup "A" as "Prerequisite" than I must have an exe-Installation, but thats not possible for me. It must be an MSI installation package to be.
An if I use Setup "A" as a "Chained Package", I must ensure that the MSI package from Setup "A" is also available. My customers will only need to download one package.

Hello,
In order to achieve what you want you can add your setup "A" installation package as a feature-based prerequisite to your main installation package. Also, if you want setup "A" to be a downloadable prerequisite, then you can proceed like this:
- Go to "Prerequisites" page and select the "Feature-based" tree node.
- Use the [ New URL Prerequisite ] toolbar button or context menu item and in the "URL" dialog set your prerequisite package URL.
- Build and run your project.
Let us know if this helps, otherwise give us more details about your scenario.
All the best,
Daniel
