AppDir won't "take" when I change it

[jeffreyd]

I changed my AppDir in General Design->Settings to be

%ProgramFiles%\%CompanyName%\Foo

where it used to be just

%ProgramFiles%\Foo

I clicked ok, but the resulting setup.exe still puts files in that old directory. Even on a brand new computer. Any ideas?

Your Select Install Folder screen is probably overriding the value that you entered here. Check out:

http://www.setupfactory.com/webhelp/suf60/Design_Menu/General_Design/General_Design_Settings_Tab.htm

"%AppDir% (Default Installation Path):
The default application directory for your installation. The text that you enter in this field will be the default value for the built-in variable %AppDir%. Unless the value in %AppDir% is overridden by a screen (such as the Select Install Folder screen) or an Assign Value action, files that have %AppDir% as their destination will be installed to this path. Note: you can use variables (such as %ProgramFiles%, %CompanyName%, %ProductName% or any others) in this field."
