BleedingEdge Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 Hi guys,How can I set files to install in target computer environment variable folder paths in Wise Windows Installer Editor? Setting a variable for source files is easy enough, but I can't find a way of doing it for the target machine.For example, I have files that needs to be installed in %ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Application Data\Apple Computer\QuickTime and %APPDATA%\Apple Computer\QuickTimeUsing the actual windows variable %ALLUSERSPROFILE% as a folder name causes an error on install (C: contains an invalid character - the % I presume). I don't want to hard define the folder structure because %APPDATA% varies for each user.Many thanks,Martin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
strel Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 As long as there's no property pointing to that specific folder under system folder properties section in the windows installer property reference, I think you have to refer to that path indirectly. About format, I've never used wise before but try:"[AnySystemFolderProperty]\.....\......" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
