Default installation folder

Specifies where to install the product files. (Install location changes are disabled if the primary product installer does not support changing the install location.)

Notes:

  • List items that refer to folders (for example, [ProgramMenuFolder]) are pre-defined folder keywords. You can create customized directories by adding new folder names with typical directory syntax (such as, [ProgramFilesFolder]\My Folder). Alternatively, you can enter a fully qualified path (for example, C:\Program Files\My Folder), as long as that location is known to exist on the target machine.
  • If you are modifying an installation that includes both 32-bit and 64-bit components, the location you specify for Default installation folder is used for the 32-bit components only. To specify a location for 64-bit components, use Modify setup properties. Add a property called INSTALLDIR64 and set the value to the location you want for the installation folder. This can be the same location as Default installation folder or a different location.

 

Organization name

Specifies the MSI standard COMPANYNAME value.
