The windows installer allows the path to be set for individual features
in the tree. We currently only support modification of the top-level
directory through the GUI - this can always be set by selecting the top
level (root) feature and then adjusting the path.

If installing from the command line, for example in silent mode, you can
set the path for individual features, but this is only recommended for
experts as it is possible to install in a layout that won't work properly.
