How to add a UI to a WiX 3 installer?
Below is a link to a good example on how to custimize the WixUIExtensions.
Customised UIs for Wix
If you use the .wixproj
directly via MSBuild, without Visual Studio, the required modification is to add this:
<Project ...>
...
<ItemGroup>
<WixExtension Include="WixUIExtension">
<HintPath>$(WixToolPath)WixUIExtension.dll</HintPath>
<Name>WixUIExtension</Name>
</WixExtension>
</ItemGroup>
...
</Project>

The wixui extension is no longer wixui.wixlib. It was rolled into the WixUIExtension.
If you are on the command line, add -ext WixUIExtension
to the call to light.exe.
If you have a WiX project in Visual Studio, add a reference to "WixUIExtension" by right clicking on "References" in the Solution Explorer.
See the WiXUI Dialog Sets page for WIX3.
