My Windows Forms Application should be installed quietly using msiexec. I’d like to expose the Install Directory as a Public Property to enable the system administrator to change it using the command line only. Something similar to this would be nice:

msiexec /i MySetup.msi /quiet INSTALLDIR="E:\MyTool"

Is there a way in Visual Studio to do this?

    Visual Studio setup projects use TARGETDIR property for Application Folder. So you can use a command line which looks lime this:

    msiexec /i MySetup.msi /quiet TARGETDIR="E:\MyTool"
