Launch an .exe within an .msi before installation completes
I'm working on an application named Robot Millennium, what I need to happen is for the Protection Settings (KREMOTE.EXE) application to run before Robot Millenniuim runs. KREMOTE gets installed along with the Robot Millennium application.
In the .msi package I have created a Custom Action using New Exe (Path referencing a directory).
I have put in the Working Directory and Filename and Command Line parameters, do I need to put any entries in the Directory table. At what point in the sequences should I place the Custom Action.
Working Directory: ROBOT_OFFICE_COMMON
Filename & Command line: [ProgramFilesFolder]Robot Office\Robot Office Common\Prot\KREMOTE.EXE
Please advsise..
You might also want to consider the "Installed with my product" option instead of "Path referencing a directory" although this is not necessary.
