Is your custom action sequenced between both the <InstallExecuteSequence> and the <InstallUISequence> tags? If it's not in the InstallExecuteSequence table, it will not run on a silent install.

I have a custom action that changes the location of the installation directory depending on whether or not the user has admin privileges.
If the user has admin privileges then the install defaults to program files
If the user does not have admin privileges then the install defaults to the local user space (Application Data)
My custom action is sequenced after LaunchConditions (which is sequenced after AppSearch) in the Execute Sequence
This works great when not running in silent mode. But when the install is run with a /qn switch the UI Sequence is not run thus the Costfinalize action in the UI is not run and the directory properties are not setup until after my Custom Action is run. Thus my custom action doesn't correctly set the install path.
Does anyone have a suggestion for dynamically setting the install path when running in silent mode?
