Summary
In this chapter, we discussed standard actions, which are actions that are built into Windows Installer, and custom actions, which are actions that you add yourself. We saw that there are two sequences: InstallUISequence and InstallExecuteSequence and how we can access them from our WiX markup. We covered the various types of custom actions and investigated the Deployment Tools Foundation. Knowing how the installer executes its tasks will help you in the next chapter where we cover adding dialogs to your installer.
