Hi,

                I'm new to the WiX Installer. Need help in figuring out how to fill in the default value into the "pathedit control" folder selection with custom folder path rather than the default built-in path of "ProgramFilesFolder". To elaborate a bit more, when I move to the dialog with "pathedit" with it's corresponding "Browse" button, the default value should be filled with the value of "C:\CustomFolder\" rather than "C:\Program Files(x86)" folder.

I tried by changing the 'value' attribute of the property which is used as a value for "_BrowseProperty" then I'm getting a runtime error of 2343. I have also added a directory entry for the custom path property.

Error Message: "The installer has encountered an unexpected error installing this package. This may indicate a problem with this package. The error code is 2343."

Thanks,
Raj.
