Hello, 

I have a configuration application that I wish to run always after my installer 
have completed. 
I don't want to have the application start until I close the installer. 
The application is installed into the INSTALLDIR location. 

The custom action is defined like this: 

<CustomAction Id="LaunchConfig" 
              FileKey="MasterConfig" 
              Return="asyncNoWait" />

And called when the ExitDialog exits: 

<Publish Dialog="ExitDialog" 
         Control="Finish" 
         Event="DoAction" 
         Value="LaunchConfig" Order="999">
NOT Installed</Publish>

This works like a charm in Windows XP, but in Windows 7 (with the UAC enabled) 
nothing happens. 
I assume that the UAC somehow blocks this action, which is what it is supposed 
to do normally, I guess. 

However since my installer requires elevated priviliges I don't understand why 
it is not possible to run the application. 

What can I do to ensure that the application will always execute, even on 
Windows 7 with the UAC enabled?

Thank you,

Thomas Due
