    Description

      ReactOS Version 0.4.15-amd64-dev
      Build 20240410-0.4.15-7878-gd05dcf6.MSVC_19.2428314.0

      Steps to reproduce:

      • Download a WIXUI toolkit based software (like SuperTux x64 from RAPPS)
      • Starts the installation and choose a directory on a fixed disk
      • Installation complains about to choose a valid disk

      The custom action's WixUIValidatePath fails to check admin rights.
      It can however be skipped by passing the WIXUI_DONTVALIDATEPATH parameter like:

      msiexec /i Supertux.msi WIXUI_DONTVALIDATEPATH="1"
