Is your custom action deferred? You can't run an immediate custom action under 
LocalSystem (impersonating LocalSystem is not supported, but deferred custom 
actions run in a different process that already runs as LocalSystem).

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] How to make the custom action run under LocalSystem 
account?


The KB says 
If it is necessary to run your custom action when using the local system
security context, set the attributes of the custom action in the
CustomAction table to either 3072 (msidbCustomAction TypeInScript +
msidbCustomAction TypeNoImpersonate)

I've already done this, but seems it's still using the admin user's account,
not the LocalSystem account.
What does "using the local system security context" mean? It is not equal to
"using LocalSystem account"?

Thanks,
-Elfe
