Subject: [WiX-users] Component installation status not affected by condition? Hi, I have a custom dialog box that contains checkboxes to allow the user to select what shortcuts they want installing. I then have a component for each shortcut with a condition inside it. <DirectoryRef Id="DesktopFolder"> <Component Id="MyApp.DesktopShortcut.Component" Guid="{removed}"> <Condition>INSTALLDESKTOPSHORTCUT</Condition> <Shortcut Id="MyApp.DesktopShortcut" Name="MyApp" Description="My app." Target="[APPLICATIONFOLDER]myapp.exe" WorkingDirectory="APPLICATIONFOLDER" /> <RegistryValue Root="HKCU" Key="Software\MyApp\MyApp" Name="desktopshortcut" Type="integer" Value="1" KeyPath="yes" /> </Component> </DirectoryRef> The problem is if I run the setup again and change these conditions (via the checkboxes) the component installation status does not change. Is their a way I can make this work or will I have to have them as "features" instead?
