Hi,

Please note - If possible, I don't want to change anything in WixUI_Minimal.

I am trying to add a custom dialog(UserTypeDlg) after WelcomeEulaDlg in
WixUI_Minimal i.e whenever a user clicks on Install button after accepting
license. This part works fine

On custom dialog I have provided back button which works just fine and
takes me to WelcomeEulaDlg. However, when I again click on Install button
it directly start installation with out showing my custom dialog.

Could someone help me to get around this?
