Executable File Custom Actions

InstallShield 2019 Express Edition

You may need to launch a third-party installation because you cannot repackage another vendor’s installation. Or, maybe you want to play an .avi while the installation runs. If that is the case, you can create a custom action that launches an executable file.

One of the supported custom action types is launching an executable in the installation. To learn how to create this type of custom action, see Adding an .exe Custom Action to Your Project.
