Hello folks

confirming, still present.

I've created a snapshot via Internet Archive:

--- snip ---
$ wine msiexec /i PPVIEWER.MSI /qb
--- snip ---

Seems like Wine's MSI lacks some internal UI/message handling. It's probably
supposed to show an exit dialog/message box at the end.

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/msi/exit-dialog

--- quote ---
The name of this dialog box must appear in the AdminUISequence table and
InstallUISequence table with -1 as the sequence number. 
--- quote ---

I've checked with ORCA, unfortunately no such thing is present in either table.
There has to be a different mechanism how this exit dialog is supposed to show.

Maybe some native MSI "voicewarmupx" log
(https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/223300/how-to-enable-windows-installer-logging)
could shed some light on this.

$ sha1sum ppviewer.exe 
4d13ca85d1d366167b6247ac7340b7736b1bff87  ppviewer.exe

$ du -sh ppviewer.exe 
1.9M    ppviewer.exe

$ wine --version
wine-5.6

Regards
