--- Comment #13 from Mike Kaganski <[email protected]> --- (In reply to Samuel Mehrbrodt (allotropia) from comment #11) RenamePrgFolder seems to be an immediate-execution DLL custom action. That means that it would run with user credentials (not scheduled for deferred elevated execution), and thus it would fail unconditionally when attempted to rename anything in Program Files (where normal user doesn't have writable permissions). Another failure (even if the action were ) could be when the renamed directory is being used; the normal MSI behavior in that case would be to have the new files copied to a temporary directory, and schedule a reboot to update the now-used files. But the action in question seems to try to do manually what should be done automatically. I seem to remember some discussion about the action(s); possibly we decided then that it makes sense to keep that for now - I don't remember; but returning the error from the action looks problematic. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
