But you are correct: no matter where the app and runtimes are installed, no
data
files belong there, unless they are purely read-only. On Windows, data files
belong
under the user profile's Application Data directory, or some site-specific
server
directory somewhere for sharing by multiple users.
But again, Whil wasn't asking about this.
