Hello!
My problem:
When I execute my bundle installer.exe, which fits several msi packages
(applications & drivers), a second installer dialog is opened
additionally at the end of the installation (First installation dialog is still
open).
This only happens on Windows 7 x86 systems and not on x64 systems.
I also figured out, that it comes from a driver msi package, but I don't know
why.
After a web research I found the following [Nov. 07. 2013]:
1. Burn adds a RunOnce entry automatically every time it starts, and it removes
it when it ends if no reboot has been requested by any of the packages.
2. The driver installation either uses an InstallFromHinfSection or calls
DIF_INSTALLDEVICE, either directly or indirectly.
3. Windows processes all of the RunOnce entries before Burn has exited/removed
its RunOnce entry.
Is this still an issue, or already fixed??
