There doesn't appear to be an option to set the final installation directory. There needs to be an option like installDirectoryName. Currently, the application always installs to:

'%USERPROFILE%/AppData/Local/' + 'require(package.json).name'

I understand that the first segment is a requirement, but I'd really like to change the second segment without having to manipulate the package.json.

Use Case:
We have an application that we allows third-party businesses to white-label. The name in the package.json is generic, whereas we need the application name and related files/folders to be reflective of the business name.

I believe this is more to do with the Squirrel.Windows framework than windows-installer, check out the installation process which briefly mentions it.
