Question
How can I create a shortcut using Wix with a target of "%UserProfile%\Local Settings\Application Data\Foo\Logs"?
<Shortcut Id="LogsStartMenuShortcut"
Name="Logs"
Target="%UserProfile%\Local Settings\Application Data\FalconMobileServer\"
Icon="icon.ico"/>
It doesn't like the % signs in the target.
Solution
Check out this site listing all the MSI-predefined directories - I would think you should find the one you're looking for in there somewhere :-)
This one here possibly?
LocalAppDataFolder
Full path to the directory that serves as a data repository for local (non-roaming) applications.
