I would like to add checkbox in welcome page of the wix bootstrapper.
Modified the HyperlinkTheme.xml and add like,
Checkbox Name=InstallDriver X=18 Y=191 Width=-11 Height=17
TabStop=yes FontId=3 Property= CHECKBOXPROPERTY CheckBoxValue=1
HideWhenDisabled=yesInstall Driver/Checkbox
But the
I have added one checkbox in the HyperlinkTheme.xml like,
Checkbox Name=MyCheckBox X=18 Y=191 Width=-11 Height=17

How can i use this in bootstrapper? I have modified the Bundle.wxs file
like,
MsiPackage
Hi All,
I want to create a bootstrapper for .NET framework 4.0 install as a
prerequisite for my application if it is not already present. Below is
how i designed my Bundle in which i am referencing my other WIX project:
?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8?

Assuming Checkbox works like a Button I would remove the Property and
CheckBoxValue attributes as I do not think you need them. Then add this line
to your bundle element to default it to checked:
Variable Name= InstallDriver Type=numeric Value=1 /

Thanks for the reply. The problem is that we are building a general purpose
product and have no control on what the user is going to do. We test various
scenarios before launching a product and this was one of our test areas.
Now, I suppose we have fixed the issue. We have made that component
Thanks for the reply. Making a component 'Transitive' will make the condition
get re-evaluated upon re-install but, nothing is happening during uninstall.
During uninstall the component was still getting executed :-(.

This is how I have mine:

Oops forgot to show how I check if checkbox is selected to install MSI:
MsiPackage Id=Client_1
DisplayName=$(var.ProductName)
SourceFile=SomeSoftware.msi
Name=SomeSoftware.msi
InstallCondition=InstallClient1Checkbox = 1
Thanks.

A project that creates a bootstrapper (and uses the Bundle element) should
produce an EXE, and not an msi. An MSI does not have the appropriate 'entry
point' which is what the error indicates.
You might find it easier to use the built-in support for installing .Net
4.0. In my bootstrapper (exe)
Hi, I have two products that install from a cd.
Both install and patch fine, but one of the products give ma a 1706 error only
in Windows 8 and asks for the original media source when I try to uninstall an
installed patch.
Once I selected the original media source the source gets rejected and
Also, I only get the files-in-use message when the installation fails.
For example, if I don't include 1 of the required DLL to run the service,
the service can't be started, so the installation fails. Then, I get the
files-in-use message.
But, if the installation is successful, I don't get the

interfere with the distributed approach used in network design and

should be handled by
The only API I'm aware of is the WMI one. This is a sample vb script
that uses it:

Hi all,
WIX 3.7 allow us to add Remote payload as attribute for Msu package even
though latest version WIX 3.8 not supporting this option and giving error
during the project build.
Now I am using visual studio 2013 and WIX 3.8 see my code below.

These might help. It's possible the patched file was never cached in
the baseline cache (or was removed) or it wasn't a = MSI 3.0 patch:

Can anyone shed some light on using Fragments/Component Groups and Directories?
Our current installer is a HUGE (long) mess of Wix code mostly in the
Product.xml and it's just unwieldy to say the least when it comes to modifying.
In an effort to make that job easier (for me:) ) I tried to
I haven't seen anything here that says that the installation has
failed. Are you saying it fails because it shows a files-in-use
dialog, or it fails because it doesn't behave the way you think it
should? Files-in-use dialogs are fairly normal, they are not failures,
although in your case if the
I also don't understand why you would exclude a Dll that the service needs.
I did this on purpose so that I can duplicate the problem when an
installation fails. I want to see how the installation behaves when it
fails. One way to do it is to exclude a required DLL for the windows service
