Not to hijack a thread here Dee, but one option that WILL work 100%
reliably is to use the "FirstDeploy" option of our ProPath templates.

Then do not offer to run the program automatically at the end of the
install (or if you do - select the SetupBuilder option to run it
non-elevated).

You can set the CSIDL location for your files in ProPath and when the
application is ran for the first time (or on demand), ProPath will deploy
the file(s) you want into the correct location.

We use this with our EZRound product to put the editable templates into a
proper CSIDL location and it works like a charm.

Since the files are deployed from your app when it is running in the proper
user context, the location is always right.

Good luck on your projects!
