Installer doubles subdirectories

I have written a LabVIEW fronend for Iperf and made an installer that also installs Iperf. Sasy since Iperf need no real installation just copy the file over to the target machine.

 

As you can see I set the destination to [Windows Volume]--->iperf (C:/iperf)

But the installer puts Iperf in C:/iperf/iperf not C:/iperf

No you didn't.  See that little red checkmark on the folder under Program Files?  That marks where the application will go.  Just beneth the Desination View all the way to the right is the button to mark the default folder.

Um... yes I did.

 

My LV application (Gperf) is placed in C:\Program File\Gperf like it should be

 

The installer places Iperf in C:\Iperf\Iperf not  C:\Program File\Gperf like it should

Oh yeah, the same thing happens with my shortcuts.

 

I want to place a shortcut in the startup folder for another LV program (MyIp) that displays the computer current IP address.

 

As you can see I have the installer set to place a shortcut for MyIp in the startup folder with no subdirectory.

But the installer places the shortcut in [Startup]--->[MyIp]---->(shortcut to MyIp.exe) not [Startup]---->(shortcut to MyIp.exe) like it should

Interesting, could you attach the .lvproj file? That should be enough for us to see the build specifications. I'm using LV 2012 unfortunately...
