With LV 7.1 it's become even more difficult to create installation sets in third-party tools without having to include the full run-time engine separately.
If you use any of the advanced analysis VIs you have to install the run-time engine (no use in including files in the same directory as the built application) and if you do and you use the old serial VIs you get a problem because the application will load the run-time from the main run-time installation and then look for serpdrv in that directory, not in the application folder...
So - being forced to use the installer builder in the application builder and include the run-time engine in the installation kit I wonder whether it is possible to specify where the run-time should be installed?
By default it will go in a directory called National Instruments in the program files folder, however that is not ideal due to the fact that the users have no relation to the fact that our application needs something from NI...and may end up deleting the directory ("National Instruments? - what do I need that for...let me delete it...). We would like to be able to specify that the run-time is installed silently in a directory named with our company name instead.
