I created an installer where I am selecting, by default a folder under "program files (x86)", e.g. "program files (x86)/myApp".
The default folder is selected according to one of the examples I saw in the forum:
I created a registry search parameters and name it mySearch. I defined the search value as containing a path to a folder.
I defined, in the Application folder [mySearch].
When I run the installer the the default directory is show in the FolderDlg as expected.
The Problem:
If I browse for a different folder, uder "program files" (not (x86), using the browse button in the FolderDlg and select a folder in "program files", e.g. I browse and select:
"c:/program files/myTestFolder" and I click ok, the path show is: "c:/program files (x86)/myTestFolder"
Only when browse and select again the same folder, under "program files" it shows: "c:/program files/myTestFolder"
However it will still install to "c:/program files (x86)/myTestFolder" (not program files)
If I select e.g. "c:/program files/koko", it wil lbe installed to:
c:/program files (x86)/koko
In the Files and Folder options, teh files are installed to "Application Folder"
Why is that and how can i fix this?
