Hi Joe,
Can you elaborate more with this phrase?
Everything runs ok, but when you go to use the app installed by
somesetup.msi, it has been installed as advertise and not actually
installed.
--> Can you provide some sample screenshots? What does it means by installed
as advertise? Do you mean, when you open Visual Studio .NET, it seems that
there is a loading bar window.. loading it like initializing an install..
something like that?
Thanks.

Exactly, when going to use a shortcut in the start menu, first you get
the MSI installer "installing" status box, and then you usually get
prompted for the installation location, for the original path is not
available.
This seems to happen when the product is installed by the admin (The
install is done using the "Everyone" setting provided in the Visual
Studio installer dialog). After the install is done, the machine has
a user account added (which has admin priv) and then logging in as the
new user. The advertize thing happens during use in the new user
account.
