Good morning all,
 
I have been tasked with gathering the information for setting up a
program. I'm new to this and really could use the help.
 
Questions:
1.       How do I set the correct path for the shortcut on the desktop
to point to the executable, currently it's not working?
2.       What code do I need to add so that when I run the MSI
installation it will prompt me to input an installation path instead of
using the default?
3.       What code do I need to add so that the version is automatically
updated/incremented with each new build?
 
The contents of the Product.wxs file is pasted below.
