Ooops! Don't need the 'cd ..' just 'dir'.
Directory path should be on the fourth line.

Hiya,
What about writing a little test app for the user to install and run.
After installing, the test app sends the 'cd ..' and 'dir' commands
to the shell. Grab that output, should tell you the directory it's in.
Haven't tried this btw...
Cheers,
Luis.

Not to my knowledge as there is no real way of knowing where
Vista is going to pop those files. That's the problem with VS -
IMHO. In addition there is every likelyhood that VS will not be

packs for Vista. It's best to avoid virtual store like the
plague. It's unpredictable and can completely alter if your user
turns UAC on and off.

VirtualStore disappear someday? Microsnot undo something bad they
created? Surely not!
I didn't write to VirtualStore, I am just wondering if my
unstaller did indeed do its job, but that VirtualStore is storing
a copy of the files wreaking havoc, preventing the new version
from properly installing. That's why the uninstaller polls for
that location as well when deleting the files it created, in case
Win itself did the duplicating. Which would make you wonder if
the permissions would indeed be set to Once Created, There Forever.
On launch, the app checks to see if the prefs files exist. If
not, it creates them. According to him, even after running the
uninstaller, the app is acting like the old files still exist so
it is not creating new ones. This is problematic because I
changed some fundamental things in the app, and it needs to create
the newer files to run properly.
I've instructed the fellow to do a full search of his drive for
the folder my app creates for its pref files, and to look in
VirtualStore as well. I do not know if he will do this, or is
even capable of doing it.
Very frustrating!
