Hi Ricardo... The folder is not created unless you install some file in this folder.
Another way to ensure that the folder is created is using the CreateFolder element. Te folder will be created even if it is empty. But it will not be removed automaticaly on uninstallation (you need to specify RemoveFolder element for it).
