I have managed to sort out the administrative install withouttoo many issues. However, when rolling it out to clients, I have an issue.

In one previous admin install, I thought that I would keep thedefault of c:\program files\solidworks, however I have subsequentlydecided that it is a bad idea for PCs with existing previousversions. I did originally tried to modify the admin files to putin the new path, but when I removed the files locally andredeployed, it still wanted to install to the old path rather thanthe new one of c:\program files\SolidWorks 2008.

So I re-created the admin install from scratch ensuring that thecorrect path was entered in.

I have removed and redeployed on my machine, but it still wants toinstall in the old directory. I have even been through the registryand removed Solidworks entries and used the Windows InstallerClean-up. Nothing seems to work.

I have now tried the same thing on a fresh PC and it still createsthe shortcut for the wrong directory!

I have checked the AdminDirector.xml file and that has the correctdirectory in it.
