I can't tell you right now since I don't even know where that folder is, that is why it is in the registry entry. We won't know until it is installed.

Eventually, the plan is to have a folder per user instead of per machine.  
Apologies for multiple, overlapping posts.

"the plan is to have a folder per user"

So, if I'm reading that correctly, MA3 will have a different installation folder per user? Meaning that MA3 will have to be installed multiple times (once for each user)?

"MA3 installer will use its own folder.

Sorry, I'm confused by that statement.

I understand that it's a lot more fun to write code. However, some fundamental decisions about top-level design might prevent a lot of re-design or re-coding later.

Perhaps you've already done that, and I'm just confused by (or am personally unable to correctly parse) the explanation. If so, I again apologize.
