Packaging Wizard - Root Installation Folder

Hi Igemcor,
The Packaging Wizard isn't part of VSTO (it's part of Office XP Developer Edition), so you will have better luck finding an answer in the Office Developer newsgroup:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/newsgroups/default.aspx dg=microsoft.public.officedev&lang=en&cr=US
In the meantime, here's an MSDN article that describes options for changing default instalation locations for setup packages: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp url=/library/en-us/modcore/html/detskchangingdefaultinstallationlocationsforsetuppackages.asp
One thing you might try is using a double period to move up one directory, although I don't know if that will work. i.e:
$(WinPath)\..
may work, in which case you would be pointing to the drive where windows was installed (usually C:).
