What's wrong with the way it's done by everybody else?
Have hardcoded paths (determined at configure time), and allow override using a config file. Have a command line option for saying where the config file should be.
For Windows, replace config file with "Registry". That is usually hardcoded for (depending on whether you want it changeable per-user) HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\<company name>\<product name> (replace HKLM with HKEY_LOCAL_USER if you want per-user config).
