Answer 2

There are few useful variables:

• $EXEPATH - holds installer filename.
• $EXEDIR - holds the complete path to the installer.

So according to the topic

the most appropriate is $EXEDIR.

$EXEPATH is the complete path to the installer including the filename. $EXEDIR is only the directory where the the installer file resides. $EXEFILE is the base filename of the installer name, e.g. "myinstaller.exe" – Eggplant
