alain, there's an interesting idea i found in a telly browser called kylo. like kmeleon it's gecko based(settings in profiles) and like kmeleon it uses nsis

on installation, they also offer the option of single or multi.. however depending on the installation type..the direct directory changes

choose single user:

the default installation path becomes in %appdata%

if regular(multi install) the path is the regular %programfiles%
[img]http://kmeleon.holaservers.com/disrupted/kylo03.jpg[/img]

[img]http://kmeleon.holaservers.com/disrupted/kylo06.jpg[/img]

this way it ensures that if the user selects single user, it installs the entire program in appdata and this will make it run normally on systems with limited rights like vista, seven etc

the user of course can change the path and might select a path with limited rights that can cause problems but at leats this way, the default installation will be in a folder where kmeleon will be able to write settings..if the user changes the directory..then that's their responsibility..most novices do not change path and use the default one so this will be a good solution, provided with the regular warnings..it's foolproof[/quote]
