如何安装到LocalAppData文件夹? [英] How do I install to LocalAppData folder?

问题描述

以下目录设置对我来说非常合适.

Following directory setting works perfectly for me.

<Directory Id='TARGETDIR' Name='SourceDir'>
  <Directory Id="ProgramFilesFolder">
    <Directory Id='INSTALLDIR' Name='MyApp'/>
  </Directory>
</Directory>

但是，当我尝试将"ProgramFilesFolder"更改为" LocalAppDataFolder "时，使用light链接并生成我的msi时出现了很多错误:

However, when I tried changing "ProgramFilesFolder" to "LocalAppDataFolder", I got lots of error when using light to link and generate my msi:

D:\runGroup.wxs(53) : error LGHT0204: ICE38: Component cmpA5561BE36D80EB58252E69DDA0C2FF8C installs to user profile. It must use a registry key under HKCU as its KeyPath, not a file. D:\main.wxs(38) : error LGHT0204 : ICE64: The directory INSTALLDIR is in the user profile but is not listed in the Remove File table.

D:\runGroup.wxs(53) : error LGHT0204: ICE38: Component cmpA5561BE36D80EB58252E69DDA0C2FF8C installs to user profile. It must use a registry key under HKCU as its KeyPath, not a file. D:\main.wxs(38) : error LGHT0204 : ICE64: The directory INSTALLDIR is in the user profile but is not listed in the Remove File table.

看起来像"LocalAppDataFolder"对于WiX是不可接受的，尽管我相信它是

Looks like "LocalAppDataFolder" is not acceptable for WiX, while I believe it is one of the system folder properties which defined in here.

我应该对LocalAppData文件夹使用什么?

What am I supposed to use for LocalAppData folder?

推荐答案

我将应用程序从perMachine安装转换为perUser安装.为了正确转换安装，我必须为我拥有的每个组件添加一个注册表项.

I converted an application from being a perMachine install to be a perUser install. In order to properly convert the install I had to add a registry key for each of the components I have.

最初我有以下内容:

<Component Id="C.MyExe">
  <File Id="Fi.MyExe" Name="$(var.MyExe.TargetFileName)" Source="$(var.MyExe.TargetPath)" DiskId="1">
    <Shortcut Id="SC.StartMenu"
              Directory="D.ApplicationMenuDir"
              Name="$(var.AppName)"
              WorkingDirectory="INSTALLDIR"
              Icon="MY_ICON.ico"
              IconIndex="0" 
              Advertise="yes"
      />
      ...

将exe组件移至用户安装时，我必须执行以下操作:

When I moved the exe component to the user install I had to do something like this:

<Directory Id="LocalAppDataFolder" Name="AppData">
  <Directory Id="MyAppDirectory" Name="$(var.AppName)">
    <Component Id="C.MyExe" Guid="{MY_GUID}">
      <CreateFolder />
      <RemoveFolder Id="RemoveMyAppDirectory" On="uninstall" />
      <RegistryKey Root="HKCU" Key="Software\MyCompany\MyApp">
        <RegistryValue Name="MainExe" Value="1" KeyPath="yes" Type="integer" />
      </RegistryKey>
      <File Id="Fi.MyExe" Name="$(var.MyExe.TargetFileName)"
          Source="$(var.MyExe.TargetPath)" DiskId="1" Checksum="yes">
      </File>
    </Component>
   ...

最重要的部分是您将必须添加指向HKEY_CURRENT_USER的注册表项.我为每个组件添加了一个注册表值，该值指示该组件已安装.

The most important part is that you will have to add a registry key which points to HKEY_CURRENT_USER. I added a registry value for each component which indicates that the component is installed.

我还必须删除以下内容:Advertise="yes".

I also had to remove the following: Advertise="yes".
