I need to move the functionality of one of our extensions from candle time to
light time. Rob mentioned using the Binder File Manager extension but I can't
seem to find any documentation on it.
Any help is appreciated.

sounds exactly like problem a BinderFileManager would solve.

To answer your question with the best of my knowledge on the subject it sounds
like you are wanting to create a bootstrapper for multiple MSIs that can be
deployed as a single install package. Is that corre

What exactly are you doing? This sounds a lot like you want a BinderFileManager
(which is an extension point provided in Light).

Have you tried using the built in WIX action of WixCA? You can set a property
with the command you wish to run and then schedule it later. From the WIX Help.
Quiet Execution Custom Action
"The QtExec custom action allows you to run an arbitrary command line in an
MSI-based setup in silent mode.
and new user logging in /qb doesn't result in
the user seeing anything.
I rebuilt the install with /qn and ran the test again to see what would happen.

Just curious here but why not use the RemoveFile element within the component
that initially installed the file or do you not own this file?
Also, AFAIK If you remove all files in the fashion above that directory will be
removed as well.
