What other things would make the destructor of the TIniFile fail? It seems to me like a lot of effort to trap something that will rarely happen. You can check for the likely things to go wrong up front (invalid filename, path doesn't exist, no write permissions, disk quota full, whatever else seems likely), and that would eliminate almost anything that could possibly go wrong later (for this particular component), apart from the aforementioned someone messing with the file system behind your back. Sure, it isn't "complete", but it is probably "sufficient".
