Hello, > 1) I use WixUI_InstallDir and want to suggest a certain path (e.g. > c:\MyTool\binary instead of c:\program files\MyTool ).

For question 1 i have meanwhile found a solution: http://www.dalun.com/wix/04.25.2007.htm Solution from webpage: <Property Id="MYAPPPATH"><![CDATA[c:\mydir\]]></Property> <!-- New property --> <Directory Id='TARGETDIR' Name='SourceDir'> <Directory Id='ProgramFilesFolder' Name='PFiles'> <Directory Id="MYAPPPATH" Name="."> <!-- Overrides the parent folder --> <Directory Id='MyDir' Name='TestProg' LongName='Test Program'> <Component Id='MyComponent' Guid='12345678-1234-1234-1234-123456789012'> Disadvantage: This gives a warning when calling light warning LGHT1076 : ICE48: Directory 'APPLICATIONROOTDIRECTORY' appears to be hardcoded in the property table to a local drive. But i can live with this warning for now...
