Hi All, I'd like to install my app to %LocalAppData% folder. Following directory setting worked perfectly for me: <Directory Id='TARGETDIR' Name='SourceDir'> <Directory Id="ProgramFilesFolder"> <Directory Id='INSTALLDIR' Name='MyApp'/> </Directory> </Directory>
However, when I tried changing "ProgramFilesFolder" to "LocalAppDataFolder", I got lots of error when using light to link and generate my msi: D:\runGroup.wxs(53) : error LGHT0204: ICE38: Component cmpA5561BE36D80EB58252E69DDA0C2FF8C installs to user profile. It must use a registry key under HKCU as its KeyPath, not a file. ... D:\main.wxs(38) : error LGHT0204 : ICE64: The directory INSTALLDIR is in the user profile but is not listed in the Remove File table. Looks like "LocalAppDataFolder" is not acceptable for WiX, while I believe it is one of the system folder properties which defined in http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa370905%28VS.85%29.aspx#system_folder_properties What am I supposed to use for LocalAppData folder?
