Thesorus asked a question.
I thought I edited that post with the full text...
My original problem was with launching a BATCH file from the custom action; I tried different scenarios, and nothing worked.
Since the BATCH file is a simple one liner that called an EXE, I ended up creating a custom action calling that EXE (installed filekey) instead.
That worked.
Thanks.
Are you sure you want to cancel the case creation?

There are two ways to launch the EXE once installed
1. Launch exe immediately after installation is finished
-> Go to Project Assistant
-> Installation Interview Tab
-> Select "Yes" (Do you want to give users an option to launch your application when the installation completes?)
-> Browse the required executable file.
You can see the option enabled in the Setup Success dialog
2. Custom action to launch: If followed the above steps we can see a custom action is added to the Custom Actions window
-> Here make it Asynchronous (No wait for completion)
-> Immediate Execution
-> Always excute
-> Install Exec Sequence -> After InstallFinalize
-> Provide the condition _IsMaintanance = "Change" OR _IsMaintanance = "Repair"
With the above steps, it worked for me. Once try and see if it works for you or not !!!
Max.Hi , Can you please tell the sequence you used to call that exe file. I have a redist file(.exe) that I need to launch before main installation.
