Re: [WiX-users] Burn does not show close application warning during uninstall
The fact that it works when used from the MSI instead of the bootstrapper means that application contexts are not the problem. In the meantime I found a conversation on wix-devs which implies that this won't be implemented any time soon. Fine. What I ended up doing for now is writing a bafunctions.dll which uses ProcFindAllIdsFromExeName to set a burn variable which enables a warning message within a custom theme. That way we at least get a warning when the user tries to uninstall while the application is running. All that is missing is the option to close the application, but I think we can live without that for now. Cheers ! Phill Hogland wrote I use a bundle to drive my msi packages.

Re: [WiX-users] Burn does not show close application warning during uninstall
I'd be a bit surprised if there isn't already a feature request tracking the issue. -Original Message- From: Tobias Erichsen [mailto:i...@tobias-erichsen.de] Sent: Friday, March 7, 2014 7:49 PM To: General discussion about the WiX toolset. Cc: Rob Mensching; b...@joyofsetup.com Subject: AW: [WiX-users] Burn does not show close application warning during uninstall Hi Jacob, Are you using WixStdBA or your own BA? I think it was in 3.8 where those messages were now being seen and interpreted by the engine, but I cannot remember if there were any callbacks to the UI. Even if there were, I don't remember WixStdBA having a dialog available to prompt the user. ...
