My intention is to create empty folders during an Admin Installation. The deployed application can be ran by multiple users from a network location, or be deployed locally, and the application requires empty folders in both scenarios. I'm sorry if that was not clear. In my opinion the product I am attempting to deploy fits the Admin Image scenario quite nicely, I'd be happy to talk about the specifics if you harbour any concerns.

A "run from source" feature is installed normally via InstallExecuteSequence, not AdminExecuteSequence; that's just for "admin installations." martin lavelle wrote: I wish to schedule CreateFolders to run in the AdminExecuteSequence, as I am deploying program whose behaviour is effected by empty folders.To quote from MSI documentation (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa368052(VS.85).aspx) "The installer creates folders both for components that run locally and run from source.". I have also tested that this works correctly. The current schema will not permit the CreateFolders element to exist in the AdminExecuteSequence like so: <AdminExecuteSequence> <CreateFolders/> </AdminExecuteSequence> Does anyone object to relaxing the schema to allow this? Is there another way that I can achieve this with WiX?RE:Scheduling CreateFolders under AdminExecuteSequence (repost)
