Policy preventing MsiOpenProduct?

Hi there

Is it possible to set a policy that disallows users to run MsiEnumRelatedProducts or MsiOpenProduct? If not, why else would these calls fail?

We've got a client on a Terminal Server system where an MSI is installed by an administrator for the entire machine. When a non-admin user tries to run our product, our internal calls to MsiOpenProduct seems to fail due to permissions.

Any ideas? Much appreciated.

I'm just posting the resolution of this problem. It seems that calls to MsiOpenProduct fail if Windows Installer is disabled by group/local policy.

It is possible, however, to call MsiGetProductInfo even when this policy is in effect.

Back to General MSI
