    Installing into Local Settings Folders

    I'm using Setup Factory 7.0.6.1 and I need to install some files into the following directories:

    Windows XP:

    C:\Document Settings\User Name\Local Settings\ApplicationData\FileMaker\Extensions

    Windows Vista:

    C:\Users\User Name\AppData\Local\FileMaker\Extensions

    I believe there might be a session variable to do this but can't find any reference to it so not sure if this is possible for the installer to detect whether Windows XP or Vista and install into the appropriate directory?

    Many thanks,
    Andrew

    You might want to check the session variable %ApplicationDataFolder%. From the (current) help file: On Windows Vista or later, it would return something like C:\Users\YourName\AppData\Roaming.
