How to invoke an action on exit

I would like to open the installation directory [APPDIR] *after* the exitDialog has been closed. Right now I have a custom action the invokes explorer.exe on commit. This opens explorer just *before* the exit dialog, covering the dialog and creating confusion. We are very particular about creating simple user experience for our installations. Any ideas would be appreciated.

Re: How to invoke an action on exit

Hello Allan,

In an Enterprise project, place the explorer.exe custom action under the UI Custom Actions section on the Custom Actions page. You can then consult our guide on executing a custom action when a button is pushed.

Best regards,
