These shortcuts are both in a fragment .wxs file. The file candle's and lit's with no errors or warnings. This works: <Shortcut Id='TSB_Shortcut' Name='TestScriptBuilder' Directory='StartMenuFolder' Icon='TSB.exe' IconIndex='0' Advertise = 'yes' /> This does not: <Shortcut Id='TSB_Shortcut' Name='TestScriptBuilder' Directory='ProgramMenuFolder' Icon='TSB.exe' IconIndex='0' Advertise = 'yes' /> The error I get is: C:\PlatformESP\TSB\WiX\Frag_KTSB.wxs(19) : error LGHT0094 : Unresolved reference to symbol 'Directory:ProgramMenuFolder' in section 'Fragment:KTSB'. I got both directory property names from here: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa372057.aspx Help?
