How to call third party installation in BASIC MSI
I am new to BASIC MSI. We are migrating our install script project to Basic MSI project. In our project we have third party installations, how to install third party installer from the basic MSI project. I am looking something similar to the LaunchAppAndWait (used in install script project). I have tried the NESTED installation but it not solving our problem. The third party installer are not MSI setups.
Thanks in advance

For your scenario, you might try using LaunchAppAndWait (or LaunchApplication) in an InstallScript custom action to launch the third-party installations.

This implementation requires that you use a Setup.exe setup launcher. Here are a few help topics that provide more details:
