Hi Georg1. In the 2nd installation, where I set the flag to install both components, I didn't change the product version in "General Information" tab as it will be updated to the intended version automatically. In fact, both installations are expected to use the same version#. About setting the components to "Reevaluate Condition". I have tried this. The results were that 1) If this is set to 'No', both were not installed in the 2nd installation. 2) If this is set to 'Yes', same problem occurred: The files in component A were not installed but the files in component B were installed in the second installation.

Hi Georg1. Yes, both components are in the same feature. I missed out another information in my previous post... The problem occurred when the installation was repeated without uninstalling the previous one. Which means, right after I installed the software, without uninstalling it, I made another same installation again. The difference between the first installation and the second installation was that, a flag was unset in the first installation to exclude component A and component B and, in the second installation, the flag was set to true to include component A and component B. Problem: The files in component A were not installed but the files in component B were installed in the second installation. If I uninstall the software and reinstall it with the flag set to true, I could get both components installed correctly.

Hi, I encountered a situation where some files were not installed sometimes during InstallFiles action. The files were under component (A) which has the same condition/configuration as component (B). The files in component (B) would always be installed as expected but those in component (A) might not be installed sometimes. When this happened, the log file didn't capture any information about component (A) at all. Is there any place that I should look at / debug? Thanks.

I have a number of prerequisites and binaries to be installed under an MSI. In one of the prerequisite, I want to set it with the behavior "The prerequisite may be optionally skipped by the user". The user's decision will then be used to determined if the corresponding binaries shall be installed. Is there a way to achieve this? Is it possible to track the user's decision on the prerequisite? If it is possible, how should I do it? Thank you.
