How do I change the default install path of my application?

After running the installation of a program that has been packaged and prepared for deployment, the deafult installation directory is:

c:\program files\application name\

how do I change the path so that when the setup file is executed, the DEFAULT path is something else.

Didja use the VB Package and deployment Wizard? If so you can make a new install cab ect and set the default install path there.

Yes I did us the wizard. And I know how to change the directory to where it creates the icon.

HOWEVER, I want to change the default path to where the FILES are installed.

It is ALWAYS c:\program files\program name\

No need to be rude!
