It should put anything marked as a PM item into the Program Group specified in the Wizard (it's under Start Menu/Programs; depending on the operating system and whether or not user profiles are enabled, it may be either visible to all users, or only to the user that installed the app.)

If you want to move the folder, or have it appear on the Desktop(s) as well, you'll have to add a post-setup executable to handle it, or use another installer.

You can fire the script silently, without allowing the user to have any interaction at all with the -Q parameter when starting Setup. Take a look at the available command line switches to see which set of options fits your install best.

I think the Setup Wizard with VFP 5.0a (build 415) is the current version. The latest files in the DISTRIB.SRC on the system here is dated 1/24/97.
