Thanks Phil and Edwin, I tried out my command and I know it works, but it works when I right click on command prompt and select "run as administrator". I thought with perMachine mode, install privileges="elevated" and deferred custom action would cover, but I'm still getting the same error.

HRESULT 0x80070002 means ERROR_FILE_NOT_FOUND See http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/dd319335.aspx Open up a cmd prompt and execute the following command (don't change the quotes or anything else): "C:\Windows\system32\\bcdedit.exe" /set "testsigning on" Verify whether the command above (exactly) succeeds or fails. The command above is the exact command that your custom action is attempting to execute. If it works, then you'll need to continue investigating. If it doesn't then there's something wrong in the way you set the SetInstallCmd property. Edwin G.
