I have an MSI, which will be delivered through an external application. The
external app has the ability to set install directory which will be
translated to msiexec /i TARGETDIR="C:\abc". This works perfectly fine.
The issue I have is that, when the user wants the install to occur in the
default location through the external app, then nothing is passed to
msiexec and the installation occurs in C:\ drive or the drive with the
largest volume. How do I change that to say C:\ProgramFiles\appName\abc?
Here is my relevant Product.wxs
<Directory Id="TARGETDIR" Name="SourceDir">
<Directory Id="ProgramFiles64Folder">
<Directory Id="Root" Name="appName">
</Directory>
</Directory>
Having this option ignores the external app and the msiexec's TARGETDIR
param. So my question is, how can I do something like this in WiX:
if TARGETDIR then use it
if no TARGET DIR then
<Directory Id="TARGETDIR" Name="SourceDir">
<Directory Id="ProgramFiles64Folder">
<Directory Id="Root" Name="appName">
</Directory>
</Directory>
Thanks in advance.
