Not able to test, but try something like this (from the documentation):

<Property Id="QtExecCmdLine" Value=""[SystemFolder]\Cmd.exe /c" rmdir /s
/q "[WindowsFolder]\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\Temporary ASP.NET
Files\myapplication""/>

<CustomAction Id="QtExecExample" BinaryKey="WixCA" DllEntry="CAQuietExec"
Execute="immediate" Return="check"/>

Kind regards

Hans
