deployment: change defaultlocation in application folder

The default location for a installed program is
[ProgramFilesFolder][ManufacturerName]\[ProductName]. Since this is not a
hardcoded path, I don't know how to change it to the what I want.

I don't want the company name as a folder and the product namefolder that is
created is the name of the deployment project not the actual project. How do
I change this so that the default will be the [ProgramFilesFolder] and then
the folder holding the exe, etc. with the name of the exe. If my project is
NoteBook I want it to be installed as follows
ProgramFiles\Notebook\Notebook.exe
