Use this page of the Installer Properties dialog box to name the product for which you are building an installer and select the location to build the installer.

This page includes the following components:

Option Description
Build specification name

Specifies a unique name for the build specification. The name appears under Build Specifications in the Project Explorer window.
Product name

Specifies the name of the installer that you want to display to users. The name appears in the list of applications in the Windows Add/Remove Programs dialog box.

The product name corresponds to the [ProductName] Microsoft Installer (MSI) property.
Installer name

Specifies the filename of the installer executable.
Installer destination

Determines the location to build the installer. You can enter a path or use the Browse button to navigate to and select the location. If the absolute path specified is the project folder or the folder above, the value of INST_buildLocation in the project file is a relative path and the value of INST_buildLocation.type is relativeToProject or relativeToCommon.

Append the [ProductVersion] tag to the path so LabVIEW includes the version of the build when constructing the build directory. For example, the path C:\temp\builds\[ProductVersion] creates the C:\temp\builds\1.0.0 directory on disk. The next time you build, the directory on disk increments to C:\temp\builds\1.0.1 and so on.

Refer to the Microsoft website for more information about Microsoft Installer (MSI) properties.
