Looks like your Type 50 custom action is authored correctly to me. Check the BROWSER property is being set during the InstallExecuteSequence. Try adding 'Impersonate="yes"' to the CustomAction, "http://"; to the URL & maybe even adding 'Execute="immediate"' to the CustomAction (that's the default but it shouldn't hurt to specify it).
If it still doesn't work you could try using the WixShellExec Standard Custom Action to launch the browser from the path your RegistrySearch returns. See -> http://wix.sourceforge.net/manual-wix3/shellexec.htm Also make sure you check fully verbose logs by launching your installers using "msiexec <msiname> /l*vx <logname>". If you also set LOGVERBOSE=1 on the command line it will make the Standard WiX Custom Actions also put verbose logging into the log. You may want to modify the condition of your custom action with the "UILevel" property (see http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa372096.aspx) so it doesn't fire the browser during quiet (/qb) or silent (/qn) installations. That is unless you're always forcing full UI installations.

It can find default browser but nothing happened. I didn't find anything like error in log file. Can anyone give me a hint to figure out what is wrong? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------ ThinkGeek and WIRED's GeekDad team up for the Ultimate GeekDad Father's Day Giveaway.
