To be useable on both the UI and Exec sides, your property needs a Secure="yes" attribute.

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] CheckBox control state modified by user Hi John, My problem is that the check box is read only on the installer side. Meanwhile if I set my property via code it works fine. The problem is that after that I can't modify the state of the control during install. Any clue?

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] CheckBox control state modified by user Check boxes are NOT set to "0" when unchecked. Effectively, the property is set to string.Empty which undefines it. The property will be set ONLY if the check box is "checked." To check for the property being unset, use NOT VS2012CHECKED. -- John Merryweather Cooper Senior Software Engineer | Enterprise Service Applications | Continuing Development Jack Henry & Associates, Inc.® | Lenexa, KS 66214 | Ext: 431050 |jocoo...@jackhenry.com -----Original Message----- From: Majcica, Mario [mailto:mario.majc...@bakerhughes.com] Sent: Monday, December 8, 2014 10:34 AM To: General discussion about the WiX toolset. Subject: [WiX-users] CheckBox control state modified by user Dear group, Inside my custom dialog I do have a checkbox defined in the following way <Control Id="Vs2012" Type="CheckBox" X="45" Y="85" Width="150" Height="15" Property="VS2012CHECKED" Text="Visual Studio 2012"> </Control> And I defined a property <Property Id="VS2012CHECKED" /> After which I'm setting that property to 1 in case VS2012DEVENV is not 0 (VS 2012 installed) <SetProperty Id="VS2012CHECKED" After="AppSearch" Value="1"><![CDATA[VS2012DEVENV <> 0]]></SetProperty> Now once I set this code, I do see my check box being set or unset base on the presence of VS2012 on a machine. The problem is that I can't uncheck or check this checkbox anymore. It's some sort of read only. What I'm trying to achieve is the following. In case the VS2012 is installed the checkbox should be checked by default. In case I don't want my feature installed on VS2012 user should uncheck my Vs2012 check box. Forgive me a beginners question but I am googling and trying for the past 4 hours with no success. Any suggestion is welcome.
