InstallPrivileges can only be set to either "limited" or "elevated". I'm assuming you mean InstallScope in which case yes that's all it does according to the documentation -> http://wix.sourceforge.net/manual-wix3/wix_xsd_package.htm
How are you elevating the MSI on UAC systems? Are you elevating msiexec or a bootstrapper/command prompt which launches msiexec or are you allowing msiexec to request elevation when it starts the InstallExecuteSequence?

Subject: [WiX-users] Changed Package/@InstallPrivileges attribute Hello, Does change of Package/@InstallPrivileges attribute to "perMachine" do anything else than sets ALLUSERS to "1"? We have several deferred CustomActions with Impersonate attribute set to "no" for elevated privileges and they seem to stop working on systems with UAC.
