Vista Start Menu Shortcut Invalid "Start In"
I created an NSIS install script using eclipse and eclipsensis, and my shortcuts' start in values do not correlate with their targets. The start in value is the folder in which the shortcuts are stored, whereas the target is in program files. How can I get NSIS to leave the start in box blank or correlate it with the shortcut's target? a copy of my script is at: http://nickmaslon.ath.cx/mazworldgamesinstallv25.nsi
The install works fine on xp and below; this problem only occurs in vista.
Thanks, Nick

Use SetOutPath to set $OUTDIR which is the value used by CreateShortcut for the "Start In" property.
