[wix-users] Create folder directly under C-Users-Public

[Phill Hogland]

I don't know if doing this is advisable, as it seems like the OS wants you to use one of the predefined folders, but I expect that any advice would have to start with knowing more about what you are planing to use in wix.

Burn or just an MSI?

If Burn, WixStdBA or custom ba?

Subject: [wix-users] Create folder directly under C-Users-Public

I want to install some non-executable files to C:\Users\Public\<My
folder>\. How can I create a folder  under C:\Users\Public?
It is no problem to retrieve the path "C:\Users\Public\Documents" through a
variable but then I somehow need to remove "\Documents" from that string.
Can that be achieved somehow with help of the commands in Wix or do you
have any other advice for solving my problem?

Thank you very much in advance for the help.
