    How to change the default location that your Project is being installed to?

    I'm currently working on a project in Visual Studio 2010 and have created an install file for my project. Everything seems to be in order, I would just like to have the default install location to be something else. I think, by default, it is set to go to Program Files\somethingsomething, and I'd just like to adjust that. Can't seem to find anything in the options, but I imagine it's not really a hard fix.

    Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

    Well I'm going to be installing this on many machines, so I'd like to change the default install location so that I don't have to browse to the location each time I install it.

    I can't recall where it is currently installing, but basically I'd like to change it.
