[wix-users] Restart required

> Why are you installing your CA DLL?





Not sure what you mean.  WiX installs it for us. And it is needed during uninstall. Again, this has been unchanged for a number of years.





Here is the code:



<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<Include>

  <!--

    = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =

    Custom Actions

    = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =

    -->



  <?if $(var.Platform) = x64 ?>

  <CustomAction Id="CAInstall"

                  FileKey="$(var.CustomAction.Install.x64.WiX.TargetName).CA.dll"

                  DllEntry="CAInstall"

                  Impersonate="no"

                  Execute="deferred" />

  <CustomAction Id="CAUninstall"

                FileKey="$(var.CustomAction.Install.x64.WiX.TargetName).CA.dll"

                DllEntry="CAUninstall"

                Impersonate="no"

                Execute="deferred" />

  <?else ?>

  <CustomAction Id="CAInstall"

                 FileKey="$(var.CustomAction.Install.x86.WiX.TargetName).CA.dll"

                 DllEntry="CAInstall"

                 Impersonate="no"

                 Execute="deferred" />

  <CustomAction Id="CAUninstall"

                FileKey="$(var.CustomAction.Install.x86.WiX.TargetName).CA.dll"

                DllEntry="CAUninstall"

                Impersonate="no"

                Execute="deferred" />

  <?endif ?>







  <InstallExecuteSequence>

    <!-- Run CAInstall after InstallFiles only if the product was not installed (i.e. do not run on uninstall) -->

    <Custom Action="CAInstall" After="InstallFiles">NOT Installed</Custom>

    <!-- Run CAUninstall before RemoveFiles only if the product was installed (i.e. only run on uninstall) -->

    <Custom Action="CAUninstall" Before="RemoveFiles">Installed</Custom>

  </InstallExecuteSequence>

</Include>

Subject: [wix-users] Restart required



This is new behavior. Now it seems many times when we uninstall our software it says we must restart the computer.



 Tracked it down to one of the installations in the bundle. Below are lines from the log.  MSI thinks that CustomAction.Install.WiX.CA.dll is in use?



This DLL contains custom actions called during install and uninstall. The code, sequencing, Wix, etc has not changed for some time.



 Any ideas?  TIA!
