No idea sorry, adding <UIRef Id="WixUI_ErrorProgressText" /> was all that I needed to get progress text during uninstallation (was quite stumped for a while). You could try doing a verbose uninstall (msiexec /x package.msi /l*v uninst.log) and analyze the log files, along with checking the MSI itself with Orca that error messages are actually in there.
One other thing would be to try and see if this works with the standard WixUI_InstallDir UI, rather than your custom UI. If so then it's likely due to your custom dialog failing to reference something and a line-by-line analysis of the dialog sources should yield positive results :) On Fri, May 29, 2009 at 11:33 PM, Routhier Louis <[email protected]> wrote: > I think the reason why you UI isn'T displayed as you expect is because in > Add/Remove, msiexec is called using /k which uses basic interface.
