That code is the same in both WiX 3.0 & 3.5 sources. Do you see the
'Publish Property="WixUI_InstallMode"' sections? Those are what's
causing you your issue, WiXUI_InstallMode isn't being set until you
click on the Typical, Custom or Complete buttons. You're using a
variable in a condition which isn't set until the condition is checked
at least once. Chicken & egg, Catch 22, call it what you like, you can't
get a meaningful result from a logical operation variable that is null
unless you're checking if it is or isn't null (which you're clearly
not). CustomizeDlg has nothing to do with the problem, your Customise
button spawns the CustomizeDlg so the variable would obviously be set
once it's shown otherwise how would it ever be shown? There aren't any
other ways I can say this, either remove the checks or live with the
behaviour. Have you even tried removing them to see if I'm actually
correct or not or are you just dismissing my advice out of hand?

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Having to click twice to proceed.
The WixUI_InstallMode checks are there in the default wixui_mondo.wxs
file - all I've done is added the LEGACY_APPDATA check. Absolutely
nothing changes in the log between the first click and the second click,
it's all very strange! It only does it when the LEGACY_APPDATA check
fails (i.e. the registy value is not set), and it only does it on the
SetupTypeDlg - I have the same check in CusomizeDlg.
