Our installer allows the users to select where they want to install certain files, but we need to have a registry entry that points to that location. I am using the ConfigurableDirectory option of the Feature to do that. How can I get the directory that the user selected so I can write it to the registry?

    I missed that ‘bracketed names will be looked up and if found, replaced with their actual value.’ in the Wix tutorial

    So I was able to do the following.

        <Component Id='DataFileRegEntry' Guid='' >       <RegistryKey Root='HKCU' Key='keypath' >         <RegistryValue Type='string' Name='Calibration' Value='[FILES]'  />       </RegistryKey>     </Component>
