[DUG] Vista help

[John Bird]

I do at least have things separated into different directories, but I also
have my program files NOT under the program files folder.  Does anyone know
if this breaks any rules?

(The reason is simple, I allow the users to routinely run a program which
get updates to my programs from a central server to this local folder).

John

Why is it too difficult exactly?

The Application Data directory when used properly is a good idea, IMO. It
means that people are much more likely to be able to back up their settings
successfully for all applications.

Cheers,
