How can I find the drive where my application is installed ? (Ex : C:\MyApp)
I have to create a directory on this drive. (Ex : C:\NewDir)
I didn't succeed with ROOTDRIVE property...
The drive may not be Windows Volume...
Thank you
Cosmin

Hi,
The path for "Application Folder" in the "Files and Folders" page is stored in the "APPDIR" property. You can try parsing this through a
custom action
in order to get the root drive.
