I'm improving my custom action code to return a number of ticks to Windows Installer in order to drive the progress bar.

I need to call the CA once in the Execute sequence and check for MSIGetCode to see if Installer is generating the installation script.

I need to call the CA again at deffered execution to do update the progress bar.

At setup time, before the deffered custom actions runs the progress bar is already full. It seems that my ticks are not used...

Where do I need to sequence my first call to the CA to be sure that ticks will be used ?

In fact all was correct but the ticks number. It must be huge enough to see a difference in the progress bar...
