[wix-users] Visual C++ 2015 Redistributables

Yes. The hang happens in the UI code after the engine completed the operation and is waiting for the UI to say Quit().

Kelly,

That log only confirms that the user cancelled the installation.

> [0710:04E4][2015-10-13T15:59:58]e000: Error 0x80070642: Process returned error: 0x642

Error 0x642 is ERROR_INSTALL_USEREXIT. User cancelled installation.
See https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ms681385.aspx

Can you cause vcredist_x86.exe to generate a log file? You can do so
by changing InstallCommand="/quiet /norestart" to
InstallCommand="/quiet /norestart /log
"[WixBundleLog_vc140]""

If you can generate a log file for vcredist_x86.exe, then please post that log.

In my experience, vcredist had effectively installed completely and
burn had sent a message to close itself but the message was not
processed (in my case session 0 was getting in the way). When I
stopped our installer manually we also noticed that vcredist was
effectively completely installed.
