MsiLogFileLocation has the location of the log file. I am unable to create a custom action to copy the log file when the installation is complete. <Custom Action="CopyLog" Before="InstallFinalize">NOT Installed</Custom> <CustomAction Id="CopyLog" Directory="ROOTLOCATION" ExeCommand="xcopy [MsiLogFileLocation] [ROOTLOCATION]installlog.txt" Execute="deferred" Return="check" /> What is a good way to copy the log file to a desired location when the installation is complete?
