That looks like expected behaviour to me.
What's happening here is that the installer's created that directory
structure and deployed a bunch of resources. During uninstall, it
determines that those are the files it deployed and removes them. you can
specify Component/@Permanent=yes if you want to
Ok, I have made the following changes to the TortEngineDemo.wxs(also
they are attached):

In theory, just removing this line should do it:
I haven't tried that though, so I'm not 100% sure. If not, you can also try
a custom action which sets the directory.
Generally, you should think twice before dropping files directly under c:\

Hi John,
Thanks for the help...Just followed the steps...worked like a charm. The
folder got installed into the program files folder and there were no
errors thrown by Light.
But I want the db directory to be created into a folder in say
c:\[FolderName](c:\[FolderName]\Tort Demo). I have tried

This will put files on the users desktop - are you sure that's what you

Hi John/All,
I have used the below commands:
heat dir "D:\Project\ESI\Code\trunk\db" -cg trunkdb -gg -sfrag -dr
TORTDEMO -out trunkdb.wxs
candle TortEngineDemo.wxs trunkdb.wxs
light -b "D:\Project\ESI\Code\trunk\db" -out TrunkDBDemo.msi
TortEngineDemo.wixobj trunkdb.wixobj

path:
C:\Program Files (x86)\WiX Toolset v3.7\bin\trunkdb.wxs
This probably shouldn't be here. Best to keep this out of the WiX install

Hi John,
When I are created the trunkdb.wxs file i had ditected it to
D:\Project\ESI\Code\trunk\db. These files exist now also and are part of
