Installer ignoring --prefix to specify install directory

[elopez-peach]

Describe the problem

Running ArduinoCloudAgent.exe --help opens a dialogue box that gives details on install arguments.
This window states that the --prefix argument can be used to specify an alternate install directory. It also states that the default install directory is C:\Program Files (x86)/ArduinoCloudAgent.
Instead, the installer always installs to the %appdata%\ArduinoCloudAgent\ folder for the user that is running the installer.

We are a school trying to use PDQ Deploy to install the cloud agent to all of our lab computers silently.

To reproduce

1. Run installer with argument --help to get the list of arguments
2. Attempt to perform a silent install using the arguments provided --mode unattended --prefix "C:/Program Files/ArduinoCloudAgent"
3. Install directory that was specified does not exist. Installer used %appdata% for the user running the installer instead

Expected behavior

Expected installer to use the directory specified in the installer command so that it would be available to all users
