Re: Where should I put files

Hi Alex,

By default, the %userprofile% is a folder which current logon user will
have r/w permission.
But as I said before the administrator has power to deny you from access to
that, even it can prevent certain user from logon the machine.

So I think in common environment, you can store the file in the
%userprofile% folder or its subfolder.
