Hi,

I am trying to write a Bootstrapper project. In my Chain I have a number of MSI’s and EXE’s to install. Can someone tell me the difference between the InstallCondition and the DetectionCondition.

On the chained packages I only want to install them if they aren’t already installed and I never wasn’t to uninstall, but I do want them to all appear in ARP, so I’m setting Permanent to YES. Should I then use InstallCondition or DetectionCondition?

Thanks

Graham
