Installation Macro Strings for Mobile Applications

The following table shows the installation macros that you can use for Windows Mobile-based applications. Use these macros in the DestinationDirs section of the CabWiz setup .inf file.

Note   Windows CE supports other predefined installation macros, such as %CE3% for \Windows\Desktop. However, these are not supported on Windows Mobile-based Pocket PCs, and their usage in an .inf file on a Pocket PC may have unexpected results.

%CE2% \Windows
%CE4% \Windows\StartUp
%CE5% \My Documents
%CE8% \Program Files\Games
