Subject: [WiX-users] Removing shortcuts Shortcuts

I have a new installation which appears to compile and link all except
one error relating to my shortcuts.  I have used the code shown in the
example from the Wix help but added another directory.  The reason being
this install is likely to be one of a number of installs and I wish to
group them under our company name and then have a folder for each
application and it's related shortcuts.  My directory structure for the
shortcuts is as follows

ProgramMenuFolder
    ShortcutCompanyDir
        ShortcutProductDir

The ProductDir contains a component to add the shortcuts and also to
remove the ProductDir.  Not surprisingly, when I build the installation
I get the following error

error LGHT0204 : ICE64: The directory ShortcutCompanyDir is in the user
profile but is not listed in the RemoveFile table.

Since the CompanyDir does not, in itself, have any components associated
with it, there is nowhere to put a RemoveFolder reference for it.  I
have tried a number of different scenario's to try and get round this
but each seems to create more problems so short of using a flat shortcut
structure (as in the help example), I am struggling to find a solution.


I am sure there is an easy way to do what I need.  What am I missing?

Thanks
