I am using a CustomAction to launch ngen at the end of my installation but it’s not working correctly in Vista with UAC. If I invoke the command manually from the command prompt as the logged in user, it fails because ngen requires the admin token. So I don’t get any elevation prompts even if I run it manually. Is there a way to specify that the CustomAction needs to be elevated? I’ve tried impersonate=no but it doesn’t seem to help.

 

I’ve tried searching the web and newsgroups for some information about using CustomActions with UAC and I found Rob’s blog entry at http://blogs.msdn.com/robmen/archive/2006/02/22/537106.aspx and while he explains that it might fail, I don’t see how to avoid it.

 

Thanks in advance for any insight you guys can provide.
