So the real problem is in insufficient information from the fx40 installation. Thanks...

The Error is WIC related, and making the WIC a prerequisite BEFORE Installing Fx40, will alleviate the problem. I.e., if you dont want a user to manually install the WIC component, embed it as a bundle in the burn engine, then during install, perform a registry key check to see if it's installed. If not, let burn install it, then perform Fx40... The real root of your question I think is this. The Burn Engine cannot know every error code for every app as I stated below. In that case Google the Hex Error Code, which will lead you to the bug I posted earlier. Quoting Goran Malovic <malov...@yahoo.com>: > No, this is not related to embedding WIC in setup.
