    I assume you're talking about the Windows installer... I've assigned this to @rswindell since he's the one who creates that.

    This is supposed to be the current behavior of the Windows installer, unless the program has already been installed, in which case it'll reuse the previously installed-to directory.

    "at startup Setup will look in the registry to see if the same application is already installed, and if so, it will not show the Select Destination Location wizard page."
