Could he install thes into %userprofile% (or a subdirectory) and run the installers from there in order to get around the McAfee restriction?

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Running an Installer from MSI This is not an answer for you, but just a note that McAfee would prevent you doing this, as it prevents program execution from a temp directory. This is part of the anti-malware addons I believe. -----Original Message----- From: Frankenspank [mailto:frankensp...@gmail.com] Sent: Monday, 29 December 2008 2:54 To: wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [WiX-users] Running an Installer from MSI I have included two components inside my WIX project which are the installers I want to install. They are installed to the temp folder. Then, I run the installers inside the InstallExecuteSequence: <CustomAction Id="RunFirebirdInstaller" FileKey="Firebird_Installer" ExeCommand="/SILENT /COMPONENTS=ServerComponent\ClassicServerComponent,ClientComponent" Execute="deferred" /> Everything installs smoothly but then when I go to uninstall, I get a message about missing components. What is the correct way to do this? I don't really want to install the files, merely copy them to the temp folder then run them. When the user goes to uninstall, I then need to look up to see if any additional components were installed by the installer and see if the user wants to uninstall. What should I be looking at?
