The MSIInstallDirectory parameter specifies the relative path of the MSI installation directory. The path is relative to %ProgramFilesDir% for installations on each machine and relative to %AppData% for installations for each user.
When you install the MSI database for all users, Omnissa ThinApp places applications in the C:\%ProgramFilesDir% location in a folder which starts with InventoryName during the installation on each machine.
When you install the MSI database for individual users, Omnissa ThinApp places applications in the C:\%AppData% location in a folder which starts with InventoryName.
The parameter is applied only when the MSIFilename parameter requests the generation of a Windows Installer database.
Specifying a Directory location for MSIInstallDirectory Parameter
If you do not want the MSIInstallDirectory parameter to use a location based on the inventory name, you can install a .msi file in the C:\Program Files\<my_application> directory.
