I have the following task: A DLL that is part of an installation package comes from a merge module. It should be installed only if a certain registry entry exists. The installer has no selection tree in its GUI, so users cannot interactively (un)select this DLL, and choice is made by the installer itself.
What I did so far:
- I created a component and placed the merge module in this component.
- I created a custom search for the registry entry.
- I failed at adding this custom search to the custom actions because the AI GUI doesn't present the custom search in the "Custom Actions" page. However, I guess I must somehow tell the installer when to execute the search?!
Thank you for helping me!
