Launching application at end of setup

We are writing a basic MSI installer.
We have the checkbox that allows the user to select to launch the application at the end of the setup. It uses an Immediate Custom Action to launch the application. The problem that we are having is that the application is being run as the SYSTEM user instead of the user that is running the installation.
Is there anyway to have the installer launch the application as the user that is logged into Windows instead of as the SYSTEM user?

For this to work, please make sure your setup.exe is manifested to run "As Invoker". This option is available on the setup.exe tab of the releases view. Be aware that if your package is not authored in a manner compatible with this setting, changing this may reveal other problems.
