    Hi, I have to install a driver msi-package (B.msi) in the installation of my application (A.msi). But it is not possible to install an msi while an other msi is running. Is there a way to start installation B.msi after the installation of A.msi, if the user doubleclicks only A.msi? Thanks!

      What about using a batch file that will run A.msi first and after that B.msi :rolleyes:

        not bad, but there are customers, who do not look. If they see an msi-file, they click on it. (The driver msi B.msi is part of A.msi, it is deployed after A.msi starts.) I thing, I have to spawn a task in A.msi, which starts after A.msi has completed. - But how?
