[walids]

hello
iam new in setup facory

now i added my files which will install to my program files and i added path to it
%AppFolder% from file properties
still i have 1 file i need to install it to path

default user \Local Settings\Application Data\example\aaa

i cannot know how to make it ?

There is no sessionvar specifically for "default user" so you'll need to "make it"

On way is to do this, in either "start up" or "pre-install" and set your file to install to "%MyDataFolder%"

SessionVar.Set("%MyDataFolder%", String.Replace(SessionVar.Expand("%ApplicationDataFolder%\\example\\aaa"), System.GetLANInfo().User,"Default User",false));

\"default user"\Application Data

Did you make any effort at learning the code?

SessionVar.Set("%MyDataFolder%", String.Replace(SessionVar.Expand("%ApplicationDataFolder%\\example\\aaa"), System.GetLANInfo().User,"Default User\\Local settings",false));

You'll want to take some time and look at the code, read the help&manual to understand what's going on -- You'll find people (in general) much more willing to help if you post "what you've tried" so we know you're at least tyring to learn...

Remember, this is user to user, not IndigoRose to user... I'm a customer, just like you. I get emails with threads I've subscribed to are updated, you don't need to click live-chat just to say "please respond".

dear
i found that script created new folder in "Documents and Settings " called "deafult user"
new path
C:\Documents and Settings\Default User\Application Data\example\aaa

while iam running administrator as default user
path:
C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Local Settings\Application Data

please check it

[jassing]

Did you check it?

c'mon -- at least try to look at and understand the code.
the 2nd bit of code has your "local settings" change.

Either post what you've tried, or try rephrasing your question; your last post confused me excpet for you "please check it" part.

Good luck

YOU ASKED for "default user"...
Looking at your original post, you said:
default user \Local Settings\Application Data\example\aaa

Really; have a look at the help -- all the tools you need are already presented to you. Just read the help; alter the code as needed

if you mean "current user" say that -- and say you want hte user's login id... but, I think you should be good to go on this - take some time, read the help; post your code that you try; you'll get better answers if you try and need help than just say "do it for me".
