Subject: Re: [WiX-users] what happens during a repair The custom action will run again. For data driven custom actions that modify machine state, the custom action should decide what to do (create, delete, update) based on the action state of a Component. This is important because in repair you could have Components in all action states: none, install, uninstall. The WiX custom actions that modify machine state all behave this way. You might take a look at them. On Mon, Dec 27, 2010 at 5:17 PM, Sean Farrow <sean.far...@seanfarrow.co.uk>wrote: > Hi: > I am currently in the process of writing custom actions.
