My understanding is that bundles currently come in just two varieties: per-user (no packages are per-machine) and per-machine (at least one package is per-machine). Given the separate ARP locations, etc. associated with that determination, I don't believe a generalized engine like burn can easily accommodate that request.

Subject: [wix-users] Can I have a Bootstrapper with optional MSI for a certificate?
Hi All,
I'm just completing a nice Wix burn bootstrapper with WPF UI which currently has only 1 MSI which does not need UAC.
I now think I have to install a certificate. Is it possible for me to make a 2nd MSI for just the Certificate (Which requires UAC) and the bootstrapper only will use it and thus ask the user for UAC if it is missing?
I would like that the user only the first time needs to use UAC and then all further installs or updates would proceed without it.
I think I know how to add a certificate in the MSI.
<ComponentGroup Id="MYCertificate" Directory="SystemFolder">
<Component Id="Com_Certificate_New" Guid="{}" Permanent="yes" KeyPath="yes">
<iis:Certificate Id="Certificate.CA_New" Name="myName" Request="no" StoreLocation="localMachine" StoreName="root" Overwrite="yes" BinaryKey="Certificate.Binary_NEW"/>
</Component>
</ComponentGroup>
What would I need in the boostrapper to check if this certificate is present. Or maybe I have to do something in the MSI as I can see in this post https://stackoverflow.com/questions/23372459/certificate-detection-installation-with-wix-installer
Thanks all for any and all help
David
