如何使用WiX在Windows开始菜单中创建子文件夹（多个级别）？

目前我可以将我的快捷方式放在“开始”菜单中，但只能放在“程序”（“开始”/“程序”/“我的文件夹”）下的文件夹中，但我想更深入地嵌套我的快捷方式（开始/程序/ MyPlatform / MyProduct /等））。我尝试了不同的组合，但唉。

<DirectoryRef Id="StartMenuMyProduct">
    <Component Id="ApplicationShortcut" Guid="{PUT-SOME-GUID-HERE}">
        <Shortcut Id="ApplicationStartMenuShortcut"
                  Name="Configure My Product"
                  Description="Add or remove this and that"
                  Target="[MYPRODUCTDIR]ConfigureMyProduct.exe"
                  WorkingDirectory="MYPRODUCTDIR"/>
        <RemoveFolder Id="StartMenuMyProduct"
                      On="uninstall"/>
        <RemoveFolder Id="StartMenuMyPlatform"
                      On="uninstall"/>
        <RegistryValue Root="HKCU"
                       Key="SOFTWARE\MyCompany\MyPlatform\My Product"
                       Name="Installed"
                       Type="integer"
                       Value="1"
                       KeyPath="yes"/>
    </Component>
</DirectoryRef>

<!-- Shortcut to the configuration utility in the Windows Start menu -->
<Directory Id="ProgramMenuFolder">
    <!--<Directory Id="StartMenuMyPlatform" Name="MyPlatform">-->
      <Directory Id="StartMenuMyProduct" Name="My Product" />
    <!--</Directory>-->
</Directory>

让事情变得有趣的是，MSI要求创建一个注册表值，以此作为检测组件是否已安装的方法。如果我们更喜欢为所有快捷方式只创建一个这样的注册表值，那么我们必须将所有快捷方式都放在一个组件中。

幸运的是，可以通过使用Shortcut element上的Directory属性来创建跨多个目标目录的组件。

   <!-- shortcuts to applications in the start menu -->
   <DirectoryRef Id="ProgramMenuProductFolder">
      <Component Id="ProgramMenuShortcutsComponent" Guid="PUT-GUID-HERE">
         <!-- create folders -->
         <CreateFolder Directory="ProgramMenuVendorFolder" />
         <CreateFolder Directory="ProgramMenuProductFolder" />
         <CreateFolder Directory="ProgramMenuSubFolder" />
         <!-- remove folder -->
         <RemoveFolder Id="RemoveProgramMenuVendorFolder"
            Directory="ProgramMenuVendorFolder"
            On="uninstall" />
         <RemoveFolder Id="RemoveProgramMenuProductFolder"
            Directory="ProgramMenuProductFolder"
            On="uninstall" />
         <RemoveFolder Id="RemoveProgramMenuProductSubFolder"
            Directory="ProgramMenuProductSubFolder"
            On="uninstall" />
         <!-- main shortcut -->
         <Shortcut
            Id="MainShortcut"
            Name="My Product"
            Target="[SomeInstalledFolder]app1.exe" />
         <!-- shortcut in subfolder -->
         <Shortcut
            Id="SubFolderShortcut"             
            Name="mySubFolderShortcut"
            Target="[SomeInstalledFolder]app2.exe"
            Directory="ProgramMenuProductSubFolder" />
         <!--
            RegistryValue whichs serves as KeyPath
         -->
         <RegistryValue
            Root="HKCU"
            Key="Software\MyVendor\MyProduct"
            Name="InstalledStartMenuShortcuts"
            Type="integer"
            Value="1" />
      </Component>
   </DirectoryRef>

   <!-- shortcut directories -->
   <Directory Id="ProgramMenuFolder">
      <Directory Id="ProgramMenuVendorFolder" Name="MyVendor">
         <Directory Id="ProgramMenuProductFolder" Name="MyProduct">
            <Directory Id="ProgramMenuProductSubFolder" Name="MySubFolder" />
         </Directory>
      </Directory>
   </Directory>
