Hi Rob, Thanks for the reply. Actually, I just went into details of deferred actions, and I realised that I don't want my custom actions to be deferred. I had tried adding teh deferred attribute only so that I could use the Impersonate attribute.
Also, my custom actions are being invoked at InstallUIsequence after CostFinalize, and some are invoked at InstallExecuteSequence after AppSearch, and after InstallFiles. Is there a way, I could run my custom actions in elevated mode? Regards, Nimisha On Tue, Oct 14, 2008 at 3:03 PM, Rob Hamflett <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Why doesn't it compile?
