LC application running on lab computers

Hi,

My application is being installed on Windows machines in a school lab. The admin is having trouble because I’m writing preference files to the Users\<user>\ folder and when another user logs in, the file is not available. This may be a problem in the future for Macs as well. These same preference files should be accessed by all users.

The specialFolderPath functions don’t seem to have one for a root level Library/Preferences folder. Is there otherwise a best, or even workable practice for this scenario?
