I want that my application start after my setup is finished. I try to launch a cmd file in the custom actions but the VS setup project doesn't want to take the cmd file, this is an invalid custom action file.

I know that I can write an installer class, but is there an easy way to do this simple action?

Would it be OK to suggest using innosetup or nsis instead?
