That's incorrect. It is totally valid to provide a Name attribute on a 
well-known folder.

OK, your WIXUI_INSTALLDIR is fine.

This is the source of your problem:

<Directory Id="ProgramMenuFolder" Name="Programs">

Why are you overriding this pre-defined value?  By doing so, its functionality 
is destroyed.  Remove the Name attribute.

Liikewise, why are you overriding ProgramFilesFolder?  The predefined value 
sets a nice default which you can still override via the UI.
