Description
If user wants to install to custom location, e.g d:\apps the documentation is missing.
The msiexec.exe /? ommits the correct parameter.
The correct commandline switch for custom path is INSTALLFOLDER=
Example commandline:
msiexec.exe /i keybase_setup_amd64.msi INSTALLFOLDER="d:\Apps\keybase" /lv keybase_install_log.txt
