Use the ControlCondition table to hide/disable the cancel button when the prerequisite property is set to true.

Prerequisite window?

If you are using a basic msi, how have you created your set up?

You can skip any dialog by making the conditions skip it on the next button of the previous dialog.

Luke, Tnaidu is evidently using Wise Package Studio which has a 'Prerequisite' page on which packagers can build a, er, prerequisite install. I never use it, preferring to use separate MSIs, either native (i.e. as supplied by the vendor) or re-packaged. That way, I get all the control I want.

I don't have a clue, I'm afraid. As I said, I never set my packages up like that, preferring instead to install prerequisites via a deployment tool.

The prerequisite dialog is displayed by setup.exe, before the actual msi setup is started. Therefore you can't easily change this behaviour. Also I think users should always have the option to cancel an action. What's your problem with this?

I run my prerequisite as feature prerequisite – when the prerequisite Is running (In progress) and the user click on 'Cancel' button the prerequisite finishes the installation and only then the setup is aborted.
How can I Kill/Stop/Cancel the prerequisite installation and exit the setup? Can I?
Please advice.

Thanks

I don't think that's possible. InstallShield's setup.exe launches the prerequisite's setup.exe in silent mode. Now how would you abort this silently running setup?

I'm not - During the prerequisite installation while the user click on Cancel button than the prerequisite running until the end and only than exit the setup.
