What does your custom action do that requires it to generate a file in the
SYSTEM folder, and does it even have to run during uninstallation?

There are impacts that can occur changing the relative order of the
"standard" actions.

Subject: [WiX-users] How to schedule RemoveFile

I need to delete a file foo.dll from the SYSTEM folder on uninstall. This
foo.dll is generated by a Custom Action in the installer. Since foo.dll is
not part of the originally installed files so I use the RemoveFile to do
this and specify the file to be deleted on uninstall. However, since it's a
system file, I get the reboot will be required dialog. Is there a way to
suppress this ? Or maybe schedule the RemoveFile until later when my Custom
Action is done using it ?
