I want to build a migration tool for my customers to move the folder and
files from /library/Preferences/ to the new location at
/Applications/myFolder/.

What's wrong with using the folder Apple recommends?:

  specialFolderPath("preferences")

That will return the user's Prefs folder rather than the system's, so it should always be writable.
