Hello!
I have a custom action that executes a vb writing information into a file using the %USERNAME% variable. The file is located in the ProgramFolder therefore the Custom Action needs to be elevated. The problem is, that as a result of the non impersonate custom action the variable %USERNAME% is not resolved as the user executing the installation but as SYSTEM. Is there a possiblity in Vista to solve this?
Thxs in advance

You can use an immediate custom action to copy the value to a property, and then retrive that property value in your deferred in system context custom action. Look up CustomActionData in help for the required steps (sounds a bit complicated at first but is actually quite simply)
