This would place MyTool on the fixed drive with the largest free space at the time of installation (see http://blogs.msdn.com/heaths/archive/2007/07/12/installing-to-targetdir.aspx ).
Since http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/aa372817.aspx says to not use WindowsVolume in the directory table, what you can do is add the following to the Directory elements that Ilya suggests: <SetProperty Id="TARGETDIR" Value="[WindowsVolume]" Before="AppSearch"/> -----Original Message----- From: Ilya [mailto:iser...@shtrih-m.ru] Sent: Monday, May 24, 2010 12:27 AM To: General discussion for Windows Installer XML toolset. Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Some beginner's questions about WIX 1. You can try code like this: <Directory Id="TARGETDIR" Name="SourceDir" > <Directory Id="INSTALL_LOCATION" Name="MyTool" FileSource="." > .... </Directory> </Directory> <Property Id="WIXUI_INSTALLDIR" Value="INSTALL_LOCATION" /> <UIRef Id="WixUI_PaymentSystem" /> Actually I'm not sure whether this code will refer to MyTool on drive C: or on another drive. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ WiX-users mailing list WiX-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wix-users
