Visual Studio 2010 setup project: How to set company name used in default install location?

I have a console app project and a related setup project in the same solution. When I run the generated .msi, the install wizard shows following default Install location:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Default Company Name\myApp\ 

How can I put my own company name?

Where is Visual Studio installer location?

The \Microsoft\VisualStudio\Shared directory is where Visual Studio stores the files that are shared by side-by-side Visual Studio installations. SDKs and tools are also stored in this directory.

How do I create a setup installation in Visual Studio?

Go to Extensions > Manage Extensions > Online > Search, find, download and install Microsoft Visual Studio Installer Projects extension. 2). Add a new Setup Project in your solution > right-click Application Folder > Add > Project Output… > choose the corresponding Project > select Primary output > OK.

Open the Properties Window (NOT the right-click on the set-up project)

Use the toolbar View -> Properties Window

VS 2013/2017 on windows 7: Keyboard shortcut F4

VS 2010 on windows 7: Keyboard shortcut sequence Ctrl + W and then Ctrl + P

Now select your set-up project in the Solution Explorer window, the Properties window should populate with the info (e.g. author, language, program title etc.) that you can edit
