Hi J,
Yes this is possible. Are you using just an MSI or do you use a burn
bootstrapper?
In case of an MSI you can define a property that you pass on the command line,
similar to INSTALLDIR=... You can create your own property say
UPDATEXML= where value can be yes or no so something like that.
Or better, associate with a Component's state.

You're referring to it as an "install" custom action, but I see no
condition that causes it to be called only on install. In other words
it's also being called at uninstall time and failing.

Hi,
I have a custom action during the installation process to execute a batch
file to replace some config file.

The installation goes smoothly. However, uninstallation fails. Do you know
what might be the issue and a potential fix for this problem?
Thank you very much in advance!
Could ship a newer bundle that knows about new MSIs and use bundle updates.

Also the command line parameters do update the config file. Just wanted to
be clear that the XML config file should only be written to when a command
line parameter is used.
Thanks again for any assistance.

I also set Bundle/@Tag to a unique string in
