Immediate custom actions don't have access to installed files, unless
they're after InstallFinalize, and with that deferred one you just need
to set the Wix magic that says "don't wait" - that's why the MSI is
waiting for it to complete.

Subject: [WiX-users] Start application after installation
Hi All,
I am looking for a way to kick start the application after it has been
installed. The application start consists of running an executable.
I tried 2 ways
1. Defered action to start the app, after PublishProduct action. This
starts the application, but the MSI hangs.
2. Immediate. Trying to invoke the app via QtExecCmdLine. However, the
application does not start if I use this method.
what is the prefered way to start an application after MSI has
installed.
THanks,
Kaushik
