Ok, but I have this issue, or maybe its just the way it works... I have set the Msi project to use: <UIRef Id="WixUI_InstallDir"/> And then I have added the license agreement rtf-file to it.
But when I have added this to the Bootstrapper project: *<BootstrapperApplicationRef Id="WixStandardBootstrapperApplication.RtfLicense" />* <Chain> <PackageGroupRef Id=" Netfx4Full"/> ...your msi stuff goes here... </Chain> I end up in not getting the Msi UI at all, and in Controlpanel - Programs I just see my bootstrapper projectname... Not the original Msi name and version... I thought that the Bootstrapper just would do its checks, and then handover to the Msi UI, and not display any thing to the user if all is Okay (.NET version are the right.).
