OK, here's the real answer. Gimp and ImageMagik output a bmp in bmp version 4 format. ImageMagik does that as well but can also output version 3 format. The resulting version 3 file will display in the installer. So, bmp splash screen files have to be version 3 format. -- View this message i

Something odd is going on with the splash screen image processing. A bmp that is output from ImageMagik won't display either. (Although it will if I open it in Paint, save and then rebuild the installer) I'm trying to change the product version number at build time in the splash screen image.

Being picky, the elevated deferred custom actions in a per system install run with the system account.

Is there something in the logs that would indicate that an action is being executed with/without this impersonate flag set? It is nice that we have the options, but why would I want Impersonate set to 'yes'? Isn't the whole point of deferred actions to run with system privileges? On Tue, Dec 3,
