Remove the property Impersonate="no" because "immediate" custom actions are
by default impersonated.

I have a custom action with Impersonate="no" and Execute="immediate". But
during the light command, it gives the following warning. Can anyone please
advise how to fix this?

Even though custom action 'MyCA' is marked to be elevated (with attribute
msidbCustomActionTypeNoImpersonate), it will not be run with elevated
privileges because it's not deferred (with attribute
msidbCustomActionTypeInScript)
