best practices article on destination folders for an installation?

[apmzapmz]

Hi There,

Does anybody know if an article of paper exists that describes the
recommended practice for where to put files during an installation?

After a couple of hours on the web, I can't find anything :-(

Hoping you can help.

Cheers, Paul

It really depends on your needs & what files you install. Here is one link.
I'm sure there are more, and possibly better, articles in MSDN and the
PlatformSDK.

Additionally the Windows Logo certification process may have some
information:
