Thanks Rob for your reply.
Honestly, I'm not sure when the custom action is scheduled because I took the
example("How To: Run the Installed Application After Setup") from Wix.chm.
Here's our code:
<Property Id="WIXUI_EXITDIALOGOPTIONALCHECKBOXTEXT"
Value="!(loc.LaunchAppString) $(var.ApplicationName)" />
<Property Id="WixShellExecTarget" Value="[INSTALLLOCATION]$(var.ExeFile)" />
<CustomAction Id="LaunchApplication"
BinaryKey="WixCA"
DllEntry="WixShellExec"
Impersonate="no"
/>
<Publish Dialog="ExitDialog"
Control="Finish"
Event="DoAction"
Value="LaunchApplication">
WIXUI_EXITDIALOGOPTIONALCHECKBOX = 1 and NOT Installed
</Publish>
As you can see, it's almost identical to the original example code in Wix.chm.
Anyways, I also run the installer and checked the log. Here's some log:
MSI (c) (B8:D4) [11:44:33:697]: Decrementing counter to disable shutdown. If
counter >= 0, shutdown will be denied. Counter after decrement: -1
MSI (c) (B8:D4) [11:44:33:697]: PROPERTY CHANGE: Deleting SECONDSEQUENCE

MSI (c) (B8:48) [11:44:36:124]: Custom Action Manager thread ending.
So the question now is: is there a way to launch the application by giving the
same Integrity Level as we start it from the system Start menu?
Thanks a lot.
