  • 0

How can I create a shortcut using Wix with a target of ‘%UserProfile%\Local Settings\Application Data\Foo\Logs’?

<Shortcut Id='LogsStartMenuShortcut'   Name='Logs'   Target='%UserProfile%\Local Settings\Application Data\FalconMobileServer\'   Icon='icon.ico'/> 

It doesn’t like the % signs in the target.

    LocalAppDataFolder Full path to the directory that serves as a data repository for local (non-roaming) applications.
