Hello, when I uninstall my basic MSI it automatically detects Internet Explorer which uses file that has to be deleted. So installer shows dialog stated that Internet explorer has to be closed. However it does not detect Firefox which is also has to be closed because it uses different file from installation. After uninstall complete it asks me to restart machine because one file was used by firefox and installer wasn't able to delete it. Is there is a way to add entry to FilesInUse dialog? I created custom action and run it right after CostFinalize. In custom action I am planning to insert record ???? to FilesInUse table??? so that InstallValidate action can display FilesInUse dialog with record I added manually. How can I insert that record? Thank You. ... View more

Each checkbox sets its property - so I have checkbox value (checked/unchecked), but how can I transform that value to something that will make feature to install or not install. Should I create custom action to set some properties manually? What are those properties? Thank You. ... View more
