I believe you have to define the directory as you are doing then use the <CreateFolder Directory="dir" /> element in a component that is installed.

One of the directories is empty but needs to show up on the target computer. The empty directory is in the Paraffin generated Fragment. When I build the MSI file and run it, the empty directory does not get created in the INSTALLDIR. I am using WiX version 3.0.3725. I can't find any options for either candle or light that would keep empty directories. Is there a way to keep the empty directory & have it created on the target machine? Thanks for any help.
