If the applications would keep their read only files in 'c:\program files'
and write only into those directories that they should (e.g. user's appdata
and global appdata (although this one should not be used for sharing writable
files...)) we wouldn't have all these problems (virtual file store, UAC,
etc.).
Some applications must write in the application directory.
Our apps do automatic updates at least once a month. The updates cannot
be postponed. I don't see how this can be achieved without writing in the
application directory.
