In case anyone's still wondering how to modify the in-memory copy of the MSI
database here are some pointers.
You can't do much with using SQL command to modify the database (using
UPDATE, DELETE, ...). If you want to modify a existing row, do the
following. First, open up the view containing the
x, TEMPORARY is
valid for INSERT INTO only, not for UPDATE.
Thanks for being fan of my blog. :-)

`Component`.`Attributes`='256' WHERE
`Component`.`Component`='AuthPluginRegistry' TEMPORA

You can only add Temporary rows (and add temporary columns, I think) to
existing tables from a CustomAction.

Hi guys,
So I am trying to edit MSI tables (component table, file table, ...) from a
custom action while the MSI is being run.
Following are the attempts I've made, and so far I have failed miserably.
And I am attempting this because
it needs to be customized after being shipped, in runtime based
