[wix-users] Already Installed Error not showing

[Ven H]

I am building an MSI with custom dialogs, but I am not customizing the
Welcome Dialog. I have a valid Product ID and Upgrade ID and
AllowSameVersionUpgrades is also not there. The following is the UI code,
which is being referenced in my Product.wxs.

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

    <UIRef Id="WixUI_ErrorProgressText" />
</Fragment>
</Wix>

First time, the installer runs fine and installs the files. But from the
next time, it is not showing the error that, it is already installed.
Rather it jumps from the first to the last screen in a flash. But if I
rebuild this MSI project in VS and run the new installer, it shows the
error. I am not sure what am I doing wrong. Can anyone please help?
