FOLDER_PROGRAMS

InstallShield 2025 » InstallScript Language Reference

The FOLDER_PROGRAMS system variable stores the fully qualified path to the Start Menu\Programs folder, which is displayed when you select Programs from the Start Menu.

To ensure that groups and folders are created at the proper location, the location to which FOLDER_PROGRAMS points changes when the default group or folder type is changed from Common to Personal or from Personal to Common when the system variable ALLUSERS is changed.
