@tchaddad I experimented with trying to add a custom projection into proj.db (or a separate file of proj-custom.db)....yikes. Not easy (and the structure of the PROJ sqlite database tables seems to change often). I am hesitant to write detailed steps in the MS4W readme.
For now, I've added a "Warning" into the existing section of the readme "Using Custom EPSG Projections" :
"The following custom projection steps are for MS4W versions 4.0.5 and older. For more recent MS4W versions, if you do plan to try to add a custom projection, it is recommended to not modify the shared proj.db but instead use a separate file such as proj-custom.db, and implement the PROJ_AUX_DB environment variable."
