Public properties can be defined on the command line. Any properties that
are all caps (e.g. INSTALLDIR) are public properties. An example of a public
property used by some of the WiX extensions is LOGVERBOSE. The following
example would run the installer with the built-in logging and set two public
properties:

msiexec /i MyInstaller.msi /l*v InstallDebug.log LOGVERBOSE=1
INSTALLDIR="D:\Custom Programs\My Program"
