I created an installer for a WCF/Silverlight application. It's all working fine until the user changes the installation path to C:\Program Files. All the other paths work fine.
failed to set security info for object: C:\Program Files (x86)\
It's on Windows 2008 Server R2. Even though the user selects C:\Program Files\ the log shows C:\Program Files (x86)\
Last few lines from the installation log:
