In this step of the
Windows media wizard
you define options for the installer.
-
In the Installation directory section of this step you determine
how the installer will suggest an installation directory to the user:
-
Installation directory
Enter a simple directory name (without backslashes). The standard location for
applications will we prepended to this directory name. In other words: do not enter
C:\Program Files\MyApplication
but only MyApplication.
The installer will find out the correct equivalent for C:\Program Files
at runtime. By default, install4j will suggest the short name
you have entered in the
general application options.
It is also possible to enter a composite relative directory like
My Corp\MyApplication.
-
Use custom installation base directory
If you do not want to install your application to the standard application directory,
you can enter a custom base directory here. This is useful for internal deployments
with non-standard directory policies. The installation directory entered above
will be appended to the custom base directory. For example, if the application
should be installed in D:\apps\MyApplication,
check the custom installation base option, enter
D:\apps in the text field
below it and enter MyApplication in the installation
directory text field above.
-
In the Privileges option you can prevent non-admin users to
perform the installation by checking the require admin privileges
checkbox. If a user does not have admin privileges ("root" on Unix platforms), a
corresponding warning message will be displayed and the installer will be terminated.
-
In the Finish options section of this step you can allow
the user to select an action after the installer has finished:
-
Click [Next] to proceed to the next step or [Cancel] to leave
the Windows media wizard without applying any changes.
