Hi,

I am trying to install the air application (native exe) in C:\Program Files  using silent install, below is the command that I am using.. (have tried with the path in quotes as well)

MyApp.exe -silent -location C:\Program Files

It doesn't seem to work with space in the folder names in the path.

It works if I just give C:\  or D:\  or D:\someFolder   ,

Any ideas of how to get this working ?

Thanks,

Brijesh

The air application was being redirected im not sure how or why; it would either go to the desktop or to C:\Program FIles (x86).


I was building an installer that included an air application; I could unpackage a jar fine to C:\Program Files on the same machine.

I will just check for processor architecture and will suggest C:\Program Files (x86) for 64 bit windows machines. Its not much more work, I just hope a user doesnt try to install to C:\Program Files instead.

Thanks for your help
