Default Installer Error 2714

I created an installer project that I want to output files to specific paths (not one of the default special directories). Under the File System view I brought up the context menu and chose to add a custom folder. One I called "C:\" and the other "C:\inetpub\wwwroot". The C:\ folder contains a single file. The wwwroot has project files outputted to it. The problem I'm having is that everything compiles, but when I run the installer I get error 2714.

The installer was working fine before I added the two custom folders, so I know they must be the problem. Can someone please tell me how to fix this?

Thanks in advance.

I saw this same issue and fixed by changing the name of one of my custom folders.

I changed the name (not the target, that still pointed to C:\) of "C:\" to "root" and the error went away.

Hope this helps.
