Our company is entering some applications for the Microsoft Windows 7 Logo Program and for evaluating the first application, Microsoft Windows Logo Kit Software generated a report with some errors, which include problems with the installation process.
Below is the generated error report:

I do not know where to start to change the design of the installer to remedy the problems reported by Microsoft.
But the kit as Microsoft pointed writing files in folders that are not allowed recordings, which can occur at runtime error. There is no direct means of burning these files to other folders in Windows?
Yes, the tests were conducted to monitor the tool kit from Microsoft. At the same time there was no other applications running, so the files mentioned were written by InstallAware.
When I ran your installer (after building it here) it didn't write to any of the Windows folder entries you mentioned.
How did you physically check for the presence of those files?
After performing the installation, these files are created in the folder mentioned in the report of errors generated by Microsoft's tool kit, as indicated in the first post. The following attached two images that illustrate the error and also a ZIP folder containing the files.
Why are files are kept in a folder with that name? This breaks with the requirements of Windows 7 Logo Program and OnClick Sistemas need a solution to this problem.
What's wrong with writing to ProgramData? That is an excellent, cross-system, user-independent location for files to be written.
Furthermore, you asked on a different post of your how to write to this folder.
I sent this post initially by the error report generated by the Microsoft tools to ensure the application. After searching and reading pages of Microsoft, I found the link http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/ff718270 the following snippet of explanations:
[Question] How do I fix the test case 2: Install to correct folders by default failure / warnings?
[Answer]: Applications Should Be installed to the Program Files folder by default. User data or application data must never be stored in this location because of the security permissions configured for this folder. Never write directly to the Windows directory or subdirectories. Use the correct methods for installing files such as fonts or drivers.
The warning shows That the. Config file is stored under C: \. We recommend That All application-specific configuration entries b and stored under the ProgramData directory. Here are default installation directories for your reference:
Native x86 and x64 applications
Program Files -% ProgramFiles%
User's AppData -% APPDATA%
ProgramData -% ALLUSERSPROFILE%
Win32 applications on x64
Program Files -% ProgramFiles (x86)%
AppData -% APPDATA%
ProgramData -% ALLUSERSPROFILE%
All application data That Must Be Shared Among users on the computer Should Be Stored Within ProgramData and all application data exclusive to a specific user and not to Be Shared With Other users of the computer Must Be stored in Users \ <username> \ AppData.
I therefore urge that ignore the initial problem reported in this post.
