Change your INSTALLDIR Property maybe.  You can do this in wise or on your commandline as it is a public property

by changing INSTALLDIR property you can change installation directory.

One more thing if the setup is 64 bit than windows creates application home directory in program files else it creates in X86

first of all let us know that setup is an 32 bit or 64 bit.

If it is an 32 bit appliccation and build is an 64 bit the app will go to the ProgramFiles(x86).

If it is an 64 bit appliccation and build is an 64 bit the app will go to the ProgramFiles.

So, the app you are working is 32 bit 0r 64 bit...

Thanks
