I want to change the name of the program files folder in a XP source.
I found every other folder, i wanted to change, but not this one. Even stranger is the fact, that i found numerous uses of the variable %ProgramFiles%, but can't find any place, where it is actually declared. :thumbup:

Have you ever heard of "UNattended"? :thumbup:

Hint1: check WINNT.SIF for "ProgramFilesDir"
Hint2: Clicky here: http://tinyurl.com/yf5k6ws
