Assuming your component has a valid file as a keypath, you would potentially need entries in the Directory table such as:
Directory | Directory_Parent | DefaultDir |
WindowsVolume | TARGETDIR | .:WinRoot |
XYZ | WindowsVolume | XYZ |
Then you can set your component's Directory_ to XYZ (instead of TARGETDIR like you said).

That works perfectly, Thanks a lot.
What is missed it .:WinRoot on the DefaultDir and I just gave a dot (.)
Do we have any short for definition for DefaultDir ? - The_D 6 years ago-
You will only need a short name if your directory name exceeds 8 characters in length. For example: (if directory is 9 characters long DefaultDir would be):
XYZFOL~1|XYZFolder
(if directory is 8 characters long DefaultDir would be just):
