Update: The fellow did find a copy of the files stored in his VirtualStore.
It's a bit convoluted. He started with a version of the game that
DOES write to the Program Files area, so this would have created a VS
copy.
He moved to a version that writes all files to one of specialFolderPath():
35,46,28,Documents,Desktop
My app now looks for docs in the new locations, it does not look in
the old location anymore in its own folder. So I don't know if
somehow VS rerouted the search path from say Documents to Program
Files? Where my proggy was looking in Documents but Vista rerouted
the search to Program Files/VirtualStore? Or whether even the new
locations write to VS?
Those are the only two explanantions. Neither scenario fits with how
VS is supposed to work as far as I understand it.
