Distributing an application

I am distributing a Windows application via a Setup.exe file. How do you
change the default target folder that comes up in the "Select Installation
Folder" dialog box.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

In your setup project:
-View File System
-Select "Application Folder in the left pane (File System on Target Machine)
-Change the DefaultLocation property
