I'm still not clear which of those actions are in the UI sequence and which in the execute sequence but....
You can't detect when the user arbritrarily Cancels the install during the execute sequence, but by definition a rollback CA will be called after a cancel so you can put the code there. It seems to me that some things are being done in the UI sequence, which 1) should not be done because the system isn't supposed to be changed yet and 2) appears to be the source of the problem. The UI sequence is where the data is collected, and in the execute sequence all the required changes are done, together with rollback CAs to restore the system in the event of a cancel or fault. InstallInitialize to InstallFinalize is the transaction where everything should be done and restored on rollback. --------------- Phil Wilson On Mon, Apr 28, 2014 at 6:48 AM, Steven Ogilvie <steven.ogil...@titus.com> wrote: > Classification: Public > I tried rollback but it isn't between installinitialize and installfinalize > so it errors when you start the MSI :( > > -----Original Message----- > From: Phil Wilson [mailto:phildgwil...@gmail.com] > Sent: April-27-14 1:13 PM > To: General discussion about the WiX toolset. > Subject: Re: [WiX-users] within MSI capture user cancelled... > > I am probably misunderstanding the UI flow here, but why is anything > happening before the user has made an upgrade choices?
