[wix-users] SPOOFED: Disable Uninstall button?

[Gerhard Matzen]

This caught my attention:
NoElevateOnModify=1

Is there a way to instruct the bundle to write " NoElevateOnModify=0" instead so that the bundle is run elevated on modify?  When selecting Change in Programs and Features, I always want my bundle to be elevated.

Now I see.

Going through Apps & Features on my machine I see that VS 2013 and 2015 have it the way you want it.
They have in Uninstall registry key:


NoElevateOnModify=1
NoRemove=1


You can get the NoRemove=1 with ARPNOREMOVE=1.
For NoElevateOnModify, you may be able to do it with a custom action.
However, since VS 2013 and 2015 are bootstrappers rather than Windows Installer packages, this might not work.


 I guess you can give it a try though
