Change Installation Manager log and temp folder locations

How to change Citrix Installation Manager folder locations. By default the follwing folder locations are used when deploying packages (on Windows x64)

C:\Program Files (x86)\Citrix\Installer\Temp

C:\Program Files (x86)\Citrix\Installer\Log

These can be changed by adding the following registry keys

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Citrix\IMS\2.0\Logfolder       D:\logs (REG_SZ)

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Citrix\IMS\2.0\TempFolder   D:\Temp (REG_SZ)
