Custom actions allow you to add functionality to your setup that is not inherently supported by Windows Installer. These actions can be used for anything from displaying a readme file to deleting registry entries.
The recommended way to create a custom action is by using the Custom Action wizard. To launch the Custom Action wizard, right-click the Custom Actions icon on the Actions/Scripts explorer and select Custom Action Wizard.
You can create a custom action that will launch an executable (.exe) file or call a function from a DLL. To create a custom action, right-click on the Custom Actions shortcut and select either New DLL or New EXE.
