I'm using WINE MONO 4.5.6 in WINE. Also, if I launch the setup in Windows, it does have a progress barr. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

Either way the dialog doesn't show up in WINE. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=39359 --- Comment #5 from Vincent Povirk <madewokherd(a)gmail.com> --- Installing Wine Mono on Windows is not a good idea, it'll interfere with .NET Framework stuff. Wine Gecko may be a better test case.
From what I understand, it's not really possible to create a .msi file that doesn't display any UI by default when run on Windows, but we'd probably want to disable that UI in the addon install code anyway.

You know on Windows when installing some apps, a window pops up saying configuring, preparing install or please wait. That's what WINE is missing. This app shows the dialog. http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=26347 It will show Please Wait and then it will change to configuring. Under WINE it shows nothing. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

These dialogs do not appear at all in WINE which causes me to believe that WINE's Windows Installer implementation is lacking this nice feature. It's kinda confusing to launch the installer but see nothing happen. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.
