Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Creatin User Group and add current user into it


I'm leary of going out of process like that.  It's really difficult to
handle unexpected errors.  Personally I created a datadriven custom action
for defining groups and then use the built in wixutil extensions to handle
associating users to the groups.    I'm not sure why WiX doesn't handle this
in the first place as the Group element under a Component element would be a
logical extension to the pattern.

Have you tried setting the Impersonate attribute to "no" in your
CustomAction element?

Hi Christopher,
I am facing one problem with create group CustomAction. I created custom
action in C# however it is not executing when I am running .msi by double
clicking, however if  I run command prompt with "Run as Administrator" then
it work fines. 
So what I need to do to run .msi as "Run as Administrator".


Thanks,
Rahul

Correct. I had to write (DTF) custom actions for this functionality.

I think you need a custom action for that. The WiX group element can only
search groups and not create new ones according to the documentation. It can
however add new or existing users to an existing group.
