Hello,
I have a bootstrapper in Wix Burn with managed UI. Bootstrapper requires
.NET 4 but I also need to install .NET 4.5.1 as part of installation. I
added .NET 4.5.1 to install chain and it installs just fine, but because
bootstrapper itself is using .NET it always requires reboot after
installation. 
I want to prevent this so I made the .NET 4.5.1 a prerequisite for
bootstrapper. If I install on a machine without .NET it correctly installs
.NET 4.5.1 before managed UI starts so no reboot is required. But if I
install on a machine where .NET 4 is installed, managed UI starts without
installing .NET 4.5.1 in advance and leaves it to install chain. That leads
to a reboot requirement again.

My question is: Is it possible to force installation of .NET 4.5.1 before
managed UI starts, even if .NET 4 or .NET 4.5 is already installed? I would
expect that engine evaluates prerequisite package install condition and if
it's "true" it installs package before managed UI.
