For deferred custom actions you pass parameters through CustomActionData. See http://blogs.technet.com/alexshev/archive/2008/03/25/property-does-not-exist-or-empty-when-accessed-from-deferred-custom-action.aspx for details.

I have a requirement to send some command line parameters to a Deferred Cusom action. My inital attempts to send the parameters using public property as follows have failed: I tried : msiexec /i myinstaller.msi CMDLINEPROPERTY="arg1 arg2 arg3" But till now i have not been able to get these arguments reach my custom action where i am calling MSIGetProperty() go retrievet the property value. I even tried reading the value from CustomActionData property , but no success yet. If anyone has successfully achieved this on a Vista platform , please help me !!
