Hello,
the verbose log tells me during uninstall (excerpt):

[...]
MSI (s) (FC:DC) [16:27:06:249]: Executing op:
ActionStart(Name=RemoveShortcuts,Description=Removing
shortcuts,Template=Shortcut: [1])

although I have set the BASEPRODSTARTMENU Path to
"C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs" it is resolved
wrongly. While I understand that the problem for uninstall of the shortuct
is that the path is wrongly resolved, I do not undestand why it is resolved
wrong? If I do the same for folder where files are installed to, the Path is
correctly resolved to the one set via command line. Is the resolving of path
in directory not equal for files and shortcuts? since both (file and
shortcut) tables reference the direcory table in msi, my thought is the
directoies referenced are resolved in the same way... Is there any way to
avoid this problem?

Best regards,
Tobias
