Hi, Instead of using SKIP_MERGE_MODULES I'd just check for ALLUSERS=1 in die Condition.

(ie. ALLUSERS=2) and the user doesn't have admin rights on the machine. Ideally, this would be done by setting a property on the command line. e.g MSIExec /i image.msi SKIP_MERGE_MODULES=1 I can make the merge modules conditional at the feature level like this: <Feature Id='MergeModules' Title='MergeModules' Level='1' Display='hidden' Absent='disallow' AllowAdvertise='no'> <Condition Level="0">SKIP_MERGE_MODULES = 1</Condition> <MergeRef Id="VCRedist_1"/> This correctly doesn't install the merge modules if the property is set, but when tried on a box without admin rights, I get the following error message: "ALLUSERS property is not 1 - this MSM cannot be used for a per-user or fallback-to-per-user install" Does anybody have any ideas or solutions?
