Subject: [WiX-users] [WIX]: Execute setup.exe from MSI package location (which is not packaged) using MSI. Hi All, Execute setup.exe from MSI package location (which is not packaged) using MSI. Step1: Created a c++ custom action to get the current directory and set the EXEPATH property. Step2: Set the INSTALLDIR property to setup.exe parent folder path. Step3: Added a custom action shown below to execute setup.exe. <CustomAction Id="InstallDRV" Directory="INSTALLDIR " Execute="deferred" ExeCommand="[EXEPATH] -uninst $(var.ARGUMENT)" Impersonate="no" Return="asyncNoWait" /> Step4: In "InstallExecuteSequence", <Custom Action="InstallDRV" Before="InstallFiles">NOT REMOVE ~= "ALL"</Custom> setup.exe is not running. Please help me to solve this.
