Just built the latest version of my project and left it with it's data folders in Program Files. Turned UAC on before running the installer and tested. Everything still works fine for me, with all accounts having access to all files for read/write permissons.

I do agree though, that the installer needs to be set up correctly, i.e. installing for all users and ran from an admin account.

I suppose we should be using the ProgramData folder, as it's the proper way of doing things, and I may well alter my project to do this before release.

I'm in the process of uploading my project for overall testing by the community and not just for any Vista issues. I'll post a link to the thread once I have created it.
