Windows Installer knows nothing about .NET, so the real question is whether you are returning one of the documented results according to the INSTALL_UIHANDLER documentation, and which one Dialogresult.Retry (4) maps to. Phil

Hi, I have a small setup that uses Embedded UI. During uninstall the RMFilesInUse (I just start an executable that was installed) message type gets to the embedded UI and I return DialogResult.Retry . I would expect the unistall to try again and check if the file is still in use. If it is still in use then the RMFilesInUse message getting back again. However the uninstallation fails. I noticed that this happens on Win7 (probably Vista) but not on XP. On XP after Retry it continues with the uninstallation. In the log (Win7) below it says that Retry is an invalid return value for this message. Does anyone have any idea of how the Retry is working under Embedded UI for RMFilesInUse ? Thanks.
