The user tries to install. During installation the power goes out or their
system shuts down. When they try to install again. The program simply goes
to the FatalError screen and says their system has not been modified. There
is nothing in the Add/Remove List.

Nothing like that exists natively in the Windows Installer. You'd need to read
the existing settings then put them back.

Hello,
You can't run two MSI installs at the same time. You need a chainer to run
them one after the other. This has been discussed lots of times.

CloseApps does what you want. Also, the Windows Installer will natively close
apps that show windows and if it is a Service you can control that during the
install. Normally, the latter to cover most applications.

I checked CloseApps.cpp in WiX 3, it can not provide any help at all.
The process that I want the user to terminate is different, it is the old

Hello,
We are trying to come up with an installer using wix. We need to detect if a
specific process is running in the system or not. Could anyone please help us
about how to detect if a process is running or not in the system from the wix
installer?
Thanks

If the issue is that your Launch Condition prevents an uninstall, then
you probably need your LaunchConditions to be performed only on an
install. In your UI sequence and your Execute sequence, put a condition
of Not Installed on the LaunchConditions action. Visual Studio setups
do this by default
Before Rob sent his blog article, I sent you the same answer. You just add `or
Installed` to your condition. This way the condition will evaluate to true
during Add/Remove Programs because the program is installed. Durign the

The real answer to your question is: you can't, because MSI will not
