In that case is it possible to check a condition and produce a (non fatal) error message if necessary when the feature is enabled? Sure. The WiX v3 setup does something like that, to show when Votive prerequisites aren't met. See src\Setup\VStudio.wxs. -- sig://boB http://bobs.org - Take Surveys. Earn Cash.

[WiX-users] Disabling a Feature
I have a feature that can only installed if .net 1.1 or higher is also installed. The description for the feature indicates this requirement but I don't want to trust to the users' good sense, some of them will either not read the message or ignore it and get into trouble. Searching through the archives showed several posts about disabling a feature by using a Condition to set the Level to 0. I tried this and it worked fine except that the feature wasn't just disabled, it was entirely removed. I'd like the feature to be visible but unchangeable from the won't be installed state so the users can select it and see the requirement in the description and then go install .net if necessary. Is there any way to do this? Thanks! - Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
