Change Default MSI Installation Directory

You can override the default MSI installation directory.

  • MSI files on a physical system

    When Omnissa ThinApp installs MSI files on a physical system, the default MSI installation directory is %ProgramFilesDir%\<inventory_name> (Omnissa ThinApp). For example, if you install a Firefox package, the package resides in %ProgramFilesDir%\Mozilla Firefox (Omnissa ThinApp).

  • MSI package for individual users

    When ThinApp installs the MSI package for individual users, the default MSI installation directory is%AppData%\<inventory_name> (Omnissa ThinApp).

You can override the default installation directory by using an INSTALLDIR property in the msiexec command.

Procedure

  • From the command line, type the msiexec /i <database>.msi

    INSTALLDIR=C:\<my_directory>\<my_package>command.
