Changing install directory from c:\program files\Ultrascale to D:\Apps\Ultrscale

I have a vendor MSI and created transforms for the same. Now I got to change installation drive from C to D.

Here are my efforts on this using PUBLIC properties,

1) ROOTDRIVE= D:\ AND INSTALLDIR=D:\Apps\Ultrscale

2) TARGETDIR

3) PRIMARYVOLUME

No success on the above tries.

Finally CA worked for me,

Step1 : I have created new user defined property called MYDIR from property tab and assigned value as D:

Step2 : Set directory custom action should be used

Custom Action Name- CA_INSTALLDIR(Name as you wish)

Directory-APPDIR(Find out the default directory from files in the Installation Expert)

Directory Value-[MYDIR]Apps\Ultrascale(This is value where your directory should be)

Place this custom action after Cost Finalize in the Execute Immediate

Note:If your using silent switches for your package to install then you should be placing the CA in the Execute Immediate otherwise

It should be put into Normal user interface sequence.
