Creating setup files for C#

Question

I am creating a setup file for a C# application, and I am successful in that. I set the default location property, [ProgramFilesFolder][Manufacturer]\[ProductName], to

[ProgramFilesFolder]\[ProductName]

While installing it it installs into C:\Programfiles\Myapplication. My problem is that I do not want to install in the Programfiles folder. I want it to install in C:\myapplication.

I can change this at the time of installation, but my client requirement is that he can directly install without any changes by him.

How do I set this path in the setup application itself?

Did you even try removing the [ProgramFilesFolder]? What else did you try? — yas4891

Why do you want to install it directly under C:? I hate programs that do that — Oskar Kjellin
