The custom needs be placed in
the proper sequence, such as before RemoveAllFiles. WiX, or more accurately
MSI, isn’t organized towards stages of installation, but allows you to
schedule events based on those stages. Joel Peterson From:

MacDuff Ok a follow up question, Where do I put the uninstall
custom action at in the Wix file? My wix file doesn’t
contain any kind of remove / uninstall sections from what I can tell? -JEff From: Rob Mensching wix\ src\ca\wixca\dll\CloseApps.cpp From: Jeff MacDuff Ahh ok.. I understand. Can you tell me more about this
CloseApps CA ? Is this an existing item I can just hook into? From: Rob Mensching You’d have to use a CustomAction like CloseApps to kill off
more than just those files that are held in use by a process with a visible
window. From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

MacDuff What is the correct method in the WIX file to list the
process names that should / need to be killed before uninstall occurs? What we are seeing is that if process A is running…
the MSI at uninstall time will uninstall all of the other files ( dll’s /
xml’s / etc ) and then prompt the user to reboot. At reboot the process A
is removed. The bug is that if the user chooses not to reboot.. and
clicks on the process A systray icon this will cause process A to crash since
it’s dependent files are now gone. How do I tell the MSI uninstall process to kill process A ? Thanks, Jeff |
