Please do not open attachments or click links from an unknown or suspicious origin. Thank you. It looks like configurabledirectory is fine with uppercase variable or directory id. ConfigurableDirectory="$(var.PLATFORMPROGFILES)" seemed to work. <?if $(var.ProcessorArchitecture) = x64 ?> <?define PLATFORMPROGFILES = "PROGRAMFILES64FOLDER" ?> <?else ?> <?define PLATFORMPROGFILES = "PROGRAMFILESFOLDER" ?> <?endif ?> ---- However during Maintenance install, the Location Path on CustomizeDlg does not show the custom install path (C:\mynewpath\). It provides the default path (c:\program files\mycompany) How do I get the new path to display? thanks, wixtester -- View this message in context: http://windows-installer-xml-wix-toolset.687559.n2.nabble.com/How-to-use-ProgramFiles64Folder-in-ConfigurableDirectory-tp7600542p7600547.html Sent from the wix-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ WiX-users mailing list WiX-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wix-users NOTICE: This electronic mail message and any files transmitted with it are intended exclusively for the individual or entity to which it is addressed.
