DTF custom actions can extract additional files to work with when they run.

Subject: [WiX-users] Use files in temp dir during installation

Hello,

we need some files (distributed with the MSI) to be in some path only 
for the execution of some custom actions. Then, after the installer 
finished, the files should be removed.

We've tried simply putting them as <File> in a component inside a 
TempFolder <Directory>, but at the time of the customAction the files 
are not there.

So, we have little idea on how to do that. Any suggestion on how to 
achieve that?

Thank you,
Lluís.
