Title: Re: [WiX-users] change install location based on privledge
Don,
You can set the Directory property using a type 51 custom
action.
<CustomAction Id="SetDir" Property="INSTALLDIR"
Value="some path" />
You can then condition the execution of the custom action based on your
AdminUser.

I know that directory ids can be treated like properties and I
know how to detect AdminUser
My problem is how to write the
conditional that will assign my install directory accordingly based on
AdminUser.
Do I add a conditional to the directory tag? Try to set a
property with the property tag? If that's the case then where? And how do
you put a conditional on the property tag?
I can do it in the UI but
I'd like to set it outside of the UI Sequence before the Execute
sequence.

You can treat Directory Ids like properties
if they are all in uppercase. You can detect the privilege level
early on in the sequence and then set your product directory to an
appropriate path. All sub-directories will get resolved as you'd
expect.
