    You can also change/set the contents of the %AppFolder% Session Variable in script, etc. You have multiple choices to achieve this, but you need to explain better what you need. And just for your information, you are not supposed to install applications into C:\. Instead, use the ProgramFiles folder as the default destination for your application. Your application is not "special", no matter what you think, and you should follow the software deployment guidelines for Windows.
