Default installation

Hi,

I have packaged "Harvest 7.0" using Wise Package Studio 5.5. There is one problem we are facing i.e. when the drive has both a C: and D: partition, the installation defaults to D:

Please provide your feedback. Thanks in advance.

Thanks and Regards,
Nilo.

Basically, when Windows Installer is faced with two drive volumes it will choose the volume with the most amount of free drive space available.

You can override this feature by forcing the MSI package to install on a certain drive volume using the ROOTDRIVE public property. Implement this public property by way of authoring into the MSI or MST, but never on the command-line (as this is not 'saved' in the MSI when doing a repair etc)
