Thanks for the Process Monitor tip Bob. I didn't see anything showing up in Task Manager for the setup file, but it sure showed up in ProcMon, and yes, I was being sorta dumb.


ProcMon reveals all.<g>

Leads me to a new question. The setup works fine if the application is not installed, but if it is already installed, the setup seems to just reinstall silently. Is there something I have to do to get the msi change/repair/remove screen using the setup, or is that just not supported yet?


If you're using the -ms switch, I'd expect a second setup.exe instance to show the maintenance-mode UI in the .msi itself. Setup.exe calls MsiInstallProduct which goes through the same path as calling 'msiexec /i' (afaik). Do you get different behavior if you drop the other -m subswitches?
