I am using InstallShield Developer 7.02. I am building a Basic MSI project. We are installing our NT Service in the INSTALLDIR directory. If the installation uses the default value for INSTALLDIR (i.e.: C:\Program Files\LumenVox\SRE) the value for HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\<ServiceName>\ImagePath is quoted; if the INSTALLDIR path is changed the value is not quoted. This is a problem if there are spaces in the path expressed in the ImagePath string value. The path is changed by way of the DestinationFolder dialog. Has anyone else seen this problem? Is there a fix or work-around?

TIA

I've seen this bug. As a workaround, we use custom actions to quote the paths.

I was concerned about side effects of doing this. If you have seen no problems doing this, I will go ahead and implement this.
