I am trying to install a file into the C:\Windows\System32\Drivers folder,
but cannot figure out how to do it. I have no problem getting the file
installed into the SystemFolder (System32) but moving on to Drivers
subfolder is giving me trouble :( The code I have tried is the following:
<Directory Id='SystemFolder'>
<Directory Id='Dr' Name='Drivers'>
<Component Id='MD' Guid='1C35B99F-B693-4c1a-A7B5-465D2AEEDC0D'>
<File Id="Porttalk" Name="myDriver.sys" Vital="yes"/>
</Component>
</Directory>
</Directory>
This results in the destination folder becoming C:\Windows\System32, however
the Drivers part is added to the source dir... I am sure there is something
fundamental I am doing wrong, but what?
I cannot use the INSTALLLOCATION folder for the Drivers folder, since I am
using it for installing other files.
And yes, I am very new to WiX. I like it very much, really great tool, if
only I could figure out all the neat features it has :). Oh and just so you
do not tell me to use descriptive IDs rather than those two letter ones, I
am doing that already I just didn't feel like typing them in the example.
