I've tried that but it requires the user to click a button after install completes, and they can also cancel. Neither is desirable.
Can this be invoked without the button click? Ideally I would just like to have my MSI executed without elevation, just like when running msiexec.exe from the command line. -----Original Message----- From: Hoover, Jacob [mailto:jacob.hoo...@greenheck.com] Sent: Monday, November 3, 2014 2:45 PM To: General discussion about the WiX toolset.

The package requires elevation but the CustomAction is scheduled after InstallFinalize to launch the application as the Standard User, not elevated. When installing the MSI alone using msiexec.exe, things work as expected, and my application launches correctly as the Standard User. However, we're using the WIX Standard BA bootstrapper to chain this package in a install bundle. The problem is, when this MSI package runs as part of the BA, it runs elevated, and so too does the CustomAction, which in turn launches the app elevated, which is not what we want. It seems that the BA launches msiexec.exe elevated. Is there a way to keep the BA from launching the MSI elevated?
