Hi,
how to check what features are installed on computer after running installation? Is there special place in registry were you can see what features were selected by user in installation time or this information saved in msi database cached on user's computer?
Any info would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

You can call MsiQueryFeatureState from a program.

Also one can go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Installer\Features and check what features are installed.
I needed that because my upgrade with REINSTALL=ALL did not work perfectly and I had to check if some of the hidden features not upgrading correctly just are not installed.
