Empty Folder Created
Hi All
I have a MSI project that installs my application to the Destination computer.
There are 4 Features to be installed based on user selection.
The problem occures when the user selects not to install Feature A but still the folder for the Feature is Installed .the folder is empty but it is created..:confused: the feture is not installed but why the folder is being created??
Please suggest

Windows Installer will create empty folders if there are corresponding entries in CreateFolder table, which references to entries in Component table. You will want to make sure if the components are installed, and if the entries in CreateFolder table are necessary.
