This was asked pretty recently.

You don't.

Thank you for your answer.

And can I  disable the "cancel" button of  the prepareDlg and the
progressDlg when uninstall?

In reality  I just don't want the uninstall can be interrupted.

It is possible? Thank you.

Installation can always be interrupted, even without a cancel button.
Your setup should tolerate that with proper rollback.

Assuming you mean uninstall still, a custom action that calls MsiProcessMessage with INSTALLMESSAGE_COMMONDATA as documented here will do that:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa370354(VS.85).aspx 

Do it as early as you can in the InstallExecute sequence. When I've done this it's not a good UI experience because the Cancel button is initially briefly shown, then disappears when the CA runs, then appears again at the end. I didn't investigate whether this could be improved.
