I wonder how to set working directory of the launching application (setup
launches app after the setup).
Currently I have the following custom action to launch the installed
application.
<CustomAction
Id="LaunchMyRedPro"
FileKey="MyRedPro.exe" Return="asyncNoWait"
ExeCommand="" Impersonate="yes"/>
And it refers to the following file defined in the WIX:
<File Id="MyRedPro.exe"
Name="MyRedPro.exe"
KeyPath="yes"
Assembly=".net"
AssemblyApplication="MyRedPro.exe"
Source="$(var.MyRedProExePath)"
>
<Shortcut Id="MyRedProProgMenuShortcut"
Advertise="yes"
Icon="MyRedProIcon.exe"
Directory="ProgramMenuDir"
WorkingDirectory="TARGETDIR"
Description="!(loc.ShortcutDesc)"
Name="MyRedPro.lnk"
Show="normal" />
<netfx:NativeImage Id="MyRedProGenNativeImage" Dependencies="yes"/>
</File>
My setup installs successfully and it launches the application; however the
working directory of the launched application is being set as the same folder
of the MSI (or maybe System32). I want to run it under the installation folder
(e.g. TARGETDIR) as in Shortcut configuration above. I don't want to use
cmd.exe and do it indirectly. I am sure that there is a way to do that in WIX.
Any help on that?
