Are you installing into the System folder? The 71 Dlls can be side by
side, so you can install them into your application folder. Visual
Studio 2005 support Dlls are SxS in the WinSxS folder - they're
installed differently. Was MFC71 a typo? That's the Visual Studio 2003
MFC support, but elsewhere you're referring to 2005. I'm not sure what
you're getting at with that "in case of a repair" - this is just at
install time, right?

Subject: [WiX-users] Conditional installation of merge modules
Hi,
I'm installing MFC71, CRT and STL merge modules together with my
product. The problem I'm having is Windows Installer asks me to reboot
at the end of the installation in case of a repair since some of those
modules are held in use by Windows Explorer. At the installation, I
don't have this problem. I assume is due to the way those merge modules
are made. Is there a way to avoid this?
I'm reading through blogs around Internet about policy_* merge modules
(I don't really understand why do I need all those):

px
I downloaded VC 2005 SP1 redistributable package from Microsoft but it
doesn't install anything of that type (ie policy_* merge module files).

Any thoughts?
Thanks,
