The installutil customaction fails. It works fine on Windows XP, Windows 2003. 
The command works fine if I open up a command prompt using "Run as 
Administrator" I run the installutil command from there. The installer 
completes when I run on Vista, but when I open up MMC the snap-in is not 
installed.

That should have done it.  Can you provide more detail about what "does not 
seem to work"?

Subject: [WiX-users] InstallUtil elevating for Vista

I have a custom action in my installer that uses installutil to register a 
snap-in for the MMC. It works fine except for when I install on Vista. On Vista 
installutil.exe does not get elevated so it fails. I have tried setting 
impersonate='no' and execute='deferred' as I have seen suggested on the web but 
that does not seem to work.

What else can I try to get this to work? I'm using WIX 2.0. Any suggestions 
would be appreciated.
