(WiX) Program files shortcut for per-machine install

Question

Following the example here, I added a shortcut to the ProgramMenuFolder that launches my application. (My code is actually simpler because I don\'t need the extra folder.)<

Answer 1

What I would recommend doing is simply making the folder as you said, but not placing the shortcut directly under it. Instead make a shortcut element under the component holding the file. You can use the Directory attribute to specify where you want the shortcut to appear.
