Thanks for using my suggestion of repackaging VLC from Discord. I know what a pain it is to customise this broken MSI. Keep up the good work of keeping this dying (but still much needed) art alive. MSI educational resources are very rare these days.

Thank you! :)

If the predefined action is altering the default user profile, then that too is problematic. Windows feature updates will remove your default user changes. Can you comment on how Master Packager deals with this? (Or does it?) Thanks!

The Master Packager Predefined action will not fix this problem. If you are concerned about it, the only solution is to copy the file with the advertised shortcut triggering MSI repair. Then it will persist during feature updates. You can even combine both solutions and then you will not have the repair before applying a feature update.
