I've posted this on the PP Yahoo! group, but I find that a bit difficult to keep up with so thought I'd post it here as well...

I just did a Windows Update on my Win8 Pro 64 bit machine as it's Patch Tuesday,
I also updated PP from 6.3.4 to 6.3.4.a at the same time.

Previously the PP installer always respected my choice of custom location for
the application, however this time it wanted to install to "C:\Program Files
(x86)\COAA", which I guess is the default.

I saw this and redirected the install to my custom folder and all went well (the
subsequent dialog boxes all pointed to my custom directories).

I'm not blaming PP for this, I think it's most likely related to the latest
Windows updates, but it might be worth noting as it's very easy to just click
through the 'Next' boxes without checking the details.

Cheers

Keef.
