The DestinationDirs section defines the destination directories for the operations specified in file-list sections, which are either CopyFiles, RenFiles, or DelFiles sections. Optionally, a default destination directory may be specified for any CopyFiles, RenFiles, or DelFiles sections in the INF file that are not explicitly named in the DestinationDirs section.

subdir

Name of the directory, within the directory named by ldid, to be the destination directory.

The optional DefaultDestDir item provides a default destination for any CopyFiles items that use the direct copy (@filename) notation or any CopyFiles, RenFiles, or DelFiles sections not specified in the DestinationDirs section. If a DefaultDestDir is not used in a DestinationDirs section, then the default directory is set to LDID_WIN.

This example sets the destination directory for the MoveMiniPort section to WINDOWS\IOSUBSYS and sets the default directory for other sections to be the BIN directory on the boot drive:


[DestinationDirs]
MoveMiniPort=12         ; Destination for MoveMiniPort Section is 
                        ; windows\iosubsys
DefaultDestDirs=30,bin  ; Direct copies go to Boot:\bin
