The reason I wanted to create and execute an immediate custom action is because on uninstall I want to remove all files not created by the installer package in a folder created by the installer package. This way the standard action "RemoveFolders" can remove the folder that the installer created on uninstall. If I use a deferred custom action instead the files that I wanted to remove will not have been removed before the "RemoveFolders" standard action since this action is executed before any deferred custom action. If the "RemoveFolders" action sees that there are files in a folder that was not created by the installer package it will not remove the folder...

You don't. Immediate CAs shouldn't change the system, so there's nothing
to roll back.
