Currenly if i install my software on a machine where c: is full and have 8 connected network drives, popping up of outofdialog box is almost frozen and takes 4-5 mins to check/calculate space on all network drives.
I dont want to check space on network drives.

Windows Installer needs to check all target drives where files will be installed. It should not check network drives if all files are going to be installed locally.

Thanks Stefan.
Can we set target drive to check/calculate space for c:\ only?
All files are going to be installed locally but i have 8 more drives ( network share mounted as drive) and outofdisk space dialog box is checking/calculating space for all 8 drives.

Do i need to set attributes column value to "131072" for list control in "OutOfSpace" Table to check free space only for fixed drives?

If the problem isn't the ostFinalize function but the dialog, that's worth a try.
