Sure. Pass a property when installed as part of the bundle that isn't there when installed standalone.

Subject: [wix-users] How to know if a MSI was installed as a part of bundle

Hi,

I have a Managed Wix Bundle. It includes 4 different MSIs.
Two of them are shared components which the user can install separately also.

I am facing a scenario where the user has installed MSI separately, and after installing it he comes and installs my bundle. It all works fine. However, while uninstalling, the other 2 MSIs which were already installed, they also get uninstalled.

Is there a way to know if the MSI was installed as a part of my bundle? In such a case, I will not schedule an uninstallation of the non bundle installed MSIs.
