Hello folks,

where did you get the information from that everything needs to go to 'AGEIA
Technologies' folder?

I've dumped the 'Component', 'Directory' and 'File' table of the MSI package
with 'ORCA'.

The installer behaves exactly as it should. The empty folder is expected.
It seems there are some parts (table entries) present in the MSI that are
superfluous, indicating the base of the MSI package was used to author other
variants of PhysX installers as well.
This package is a "system software" variant, with some stuff stripped out.

There are several 'D_AGEIA_xxx' folder references present but the 'Component'
and 'File' table clearly show that all files physically present in the package
get installed below the parent folder which is 'NVIDIA Corporation'

INSTALLDIR    APPLICATIONFOLDER    .

IMHO nothing to fix here -> invalid

@Austin (off-topic): Please try to ensure that essential fields of bugs are
filled if the info is known. It's not very hard to do. It really bothers me
that we have still ~460 bugs that have no Wine version set at all where it
clearly could have been present. 

Regards
