Use immediate custom actions that probe the system and set the
appropriate data on properties.  Then consume those properties in the
deferred CAs that modify the system.

If you need to remember initial settings at install time so that you
can "undo" them at uninstall time, then do something similar: use an
immediate CA to read the data and set it into properties.  Write the
properties into the registry.  Use AppSearch to reconstitute the
settings from the registry into properties at uninstall time.
