Hello,
I have experienced something insteresting :
I wanted to remove the "End Dialog" (The one which tell you that the setup has finished - called SetupCompleteSuccess on IS, and Exit_Dialog on Wise) but ONLY during the uninstall.
So I tried to set the "End_Dialog" condition to NOT REMOVE="ALL" or REMOVE~<>"ALL" , but it didn't work.
Someone told me to try the vendor specific Properties of Maintenance mode :
_IsMaintenance on IS or MaintenanceMode on Wise.
So I tried _IsMaintenance~<>"Remove" and it worked !
Extract from MSDN :
Note that the REMOVE property is not guaranteed to be set to ALL during an uninstall before the installer executes the InstallValidate action.
Ok, but the "End_Dialog" is scheduled AFTER InstallValidate, no ?
The problems seems to be that this Property is not visible from the InstallUISequence...
Do you have any idea about it ?

Here's a quote from WiseUser found on a website called Appdeploy:
| QUOTE |
| I believe the execution order of an MSI during a standard installation looks something like this: InstallUISequence (LaunchConditions -> ExecuteAction) -> Immediate "InstallExecuteSequence" (LauchConditions -> InstallFinalize) -> Deferred "InstallExecuteSequence" (InstallInitialize -> InstallFinalize) -> Immediate "InstallExecuteSequence" (InstallFinalize -> End) -> InstallUISequence (ExecuteAction -> End) It would seem that properties set during "InstallExecuteSequence" are not available in the final (post-"ExecuteAction") part of the "InstallUISequence". |

At the end of the InstallExecuteSequence, the new property values are indeed not transferred to the UI sequence.
However, if your setup is run in the UI sequence, you can be sure that the user passed the Maintenance dialog. So using the [_IsMaintenance] property (which is the last value of the radiobutton choice) is a valid alternative.
