Did you try my suggestion of Logon
Did you try my suggestion of LogonUser?
The problem is that this will only return the name and not the domain so you
might have to resort to a custom action.
I don't think reading the environment variables will work as the MSI is in the
context of the msiexec service not the user that is l
Could you use a custom action to get the environment variables at install
time? In managed code:
System.Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable(String name)
I'm not sure if there's a declarative way of doing this in WiX.

Have you tried defining the variables this way:
I think you could even combine them
those environment variables will always be

That %VariableName syntax, I'm not familiar with that in WiX. It reminds me
of parameter values in a Windows shell script? Are you wanting to collect
the domain\username from the person who launches the installer? If that's
the case, if you wanted them to pass that in on the command line, you could
