Not sure about the internal filters that might be set and I wouldn't know what to look for using Orca to view the .msi file to see what might be allowing me to install to Program Files in a per-user install. I do know it is installing to Program Files and not Program Data.
If you are curious and wanted to have a look I have created a simple test app and an InstallShield LE installer where the ALLUSERS switch is set to per-user and the data installs to Program Files. The resulting .msi file is in the top level of the zip. I have zipped them and placed them in dropbox if you wanted to download. This is a x64 installer.: https://www.dropbox.com/s/f78ijq0z8qpuwn3/Test%20Project.zip?dl=0 -----Original Message----- From: Rob Mensching [mailto:r...@firegiant.com] Sent: Monday, 11 May 2015 4:10 p.m. To: General discussion about the WiX toolset.

Yes I have successfully installed to Win7 and Win8 without having to make any changes to the installer.
