It's possible to write a compiler extension that would hook in with a

I sometimes suggest things from the top of my head but this I actually tried to
compile and link. And for Wix2.0.5325.0 it works. What version are you using?
You can leave out stuff as long as your condition doesn't use

Hi and thanks,
I was thinking the same; that it was something outside this block that
caused the problems. However, I don't have any more CDATAs or "]]>" in this
WiX file. This file only contains a fragment, and I have another xml
containing the block. This file does not contain any CDATA either.
I don't think you need the CDATA for your condition. Conditions are
usually wrapped in CDATA because they often contain < and > characters.
That being said, are you sure that the problem is actually in the
fragment that you posted? Your CDATA looks fine to me, I'm thinking
that maybe something e

In my installations, clicking the final 'remove' button sets
