ActiveX MSI install not showing up in the C:\WINDOWS\Downloaded Program Files

Hi,

I am using InstallShield to build a deployment package with few ActiveX controls. After building the package and testing it, I am not seeing my ActiveX controls in the Downloaded Program Files.

The controls are registered and visible via command line, but not through Windows Explorer.
Does anyone know why this is happening and how i can get this to show?

Thanks
Al

The controls are visible via command line, but not through Windows Explorer.
This is standard behaviour due to the existing desktop.ini!

Rename "C:\WINDOWS\Downloaded Program Files\desktop.ini" or open the file and remark each line with a # character.
You need to close and open windows explorer again for the affect to take place, changing directory should also work.

Ugh.. please don't open two threads for one issue.
Rating comments in this legacy AppDeploy message board thread won't reorder them,
so that the conversation will remain readable.
