Hi,
I have a small problem with Environment Variables when making MSI-packages. The problem is that they all end with a "\", is there any way of removing the "\" in a simple way because some the programs doesnt like the paths ending with "\".
Edit: forgot to mention that I use Wise Package Studio.

Hi anha,
Wise and Installshield generates it automatically as you have said when defining it for [INSTALLDIR]. The only way to get what you want is to use [ProgramFilesFolder] string then append your working directory here. For example:
[ProgramFilesFolder]Your Folder\anha >> This could be your INSTALLDIR... what do you think? NOw, the problem here is if you ever have a standards in your team to always use [INSTALLDIR], you should probably include it in your documentation explaining why you did that.
Check it out.[;)]
