MSI (c) (7C:54) [16:57:43:756]: PROPERTY CHANGE: Adding TARGETDIR property. Its value is 'C:\'. ... MSI (c) (7C:54) [16:57:43:772]: Target path resolution complete. Dumping Directory table... MSI (c) (7C:54) [16:57:43:772]: Note: target paths subject to change (via custom actions or browsing) MSI (c) (7C:54) [16:57:43:772]: Dir (target): Key: TARGETDIR , Object: C:\ MSI (c) (7C:54) [16:57:43:772]: Dir (target): Key: WindowsFolder , Object: C:\WINDOWS\ MSI (c) (7C:54) [16:57:43:772]: Dir (target): Key: CommonFilesFolder , Object: C:\Program Files\Common Files\ MSI (c) (7C:54) [16:57:43:772]: Dir (target): Key: ProgramFilesFolder , Object: C:\Program Files\ MSI (c) (7C:54) [16:57:43:772]: Dir (target): Key: INSTALLDIR , Object: C:\Program Files\product\ MSI (c) (7C:54) [16:57:43:772]: Dir (target): Key: DBM_SERVICES_DIR , Object: C:\Program Files\product\Services\ MSI (c) (7C:54) [16:57:43:772]: PROPERTY CHANGE: Adding INSTALLLEVEL property.
