Thank you for the prompt reply mate. So that means repair button would be
present whether the files are missing  or not right? If the package state
is present, I should always display the repair button right?

any of the installed files are missing? I have marked the files as
KeyPath=yes and included them in the MSI. I can repair the missing files
using the MSI. But how can I launch the repair action through the
bootstrapper EXE? Any help would be much appreciated.
