Hi Christopher, this is not tightly coupled to a visual style. In silent mode i have a top level installer that takes care of reboot based upon the status of bunch of smaller installers. In GUI mode user is directly invoking the installer/uninstall and hence the difference.

I would be so angry if I installed software that did this to my machine. Software should never be this tightly coupled to a specific visual style and if you are otherwise authorized to make these types of changes because you own the environment it shouldn't be done through an install but rather through Active Directory GPO directly. ----- Original Message ---- From: Sajo Jacob <spja...@gmail.com> To: General discussion for Windows Installer XML toolset. <wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net> Sent: Thu, August 5, 2010 12:25:25 PM Subject: [WiX-users] Modify Group Policy with WiX Does WiX support modifying group policy? I need to enable the GP " force a specific visual style file or force Windows Classic" from my MSI.
