Hi all,
Just found the solution for this. No more need for registry search or custom
actions, and also no need to place a file there :)
Many thanks to Kalle Olavi Niemitalo (see
http://msdn.microsoft.com/newsgroups/default.aspx?dg=microsoft.public.platformsdk.msi&mid=630aeb54-f6f7-4ae6-b8b1-4dad3ba95bac)
It works by creating a component which has the folder (TDIR) as KeyPath.
Good results then after Repair.
Maybe it helps others in the future.
Thanks all.
Adrian

Any MSI documentation links for me to understand why the directory property is
OK if I have a component with a file as KeyPath installed in that directory and
not OK otherwise ?
I don't know of any.
