Message (Error)

The property LIMITUI has been set, but ARPNOMODIFY has not. This can lead to undesirable behavior with Add or Remove Programs.

Description

If you set the LIMITUI property in an installation, you should also set the ARPNOMODIFY property.

The LIMITUI property sets the user interface level to basic. An installation run with a basic UI typically displays only progress messages to end users. It does not allow end users to select features or provide other feedback.

The ARPNOMODIFY property prevents end users from modifying the product through Add or Remove Programs.

Corrective Action

To resolve this error, add the ARPNOMODIFY property to your project through the Property Manager view, and set its value to 1. For more information, see Creating Properties in Windows Installer–Based Projects.
