I'm using the WIXUI_INSTALLDIR functionality in my installer. When I install,
it lets me change the install directory from the default path that I set to
INSTALLLOCATION and it installs to that new directory perfectly fine. However,
when I enter maintenance mode (by hitting Change in Add/Remove Programs or
re-running the installer), and I try to add a feature that I hadn't yet
installed, it will always install it to the default path, which is not where I
installed the product to.
Is there anything special I need to do to make that happen?
Here's the code snippet of my installer:
