Basically you make them elevated by marking them deferred and sequencing them between InstallInitialize and InstallFinalize.

But On Vista and Windows 7 it doesn't because that requires elevation. I have sequenced <RemoveExistingProducts/> after <InstallInitialize/> Can anybody give me the proper sequencing and conditions to run the CAs in the elevated mode?? ----- Andy MSI Developer Schneider Electric:working: -- View this message in context: http://n2.nabble.com/Upgrade-nightmare-again-tp4360304p4360304.html Sent from the wix-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Verizon Developer Community Take advantage of Verizon's best-in-class app development support A streamlined, 14 day to market process makes app distribution fast and easy Join now and get one step closer to millions of Verizon customers http://p.sf.net/sfu/verizon-dev2dev _______________________________________________ WiX-users mailing list WiX-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wix-users *** Confidentiality Notice: This e-mail, including any associated or attached files, is intended solely for the individual or entity to which it is addressed.
