We make and sell a couple of research applications developed in LiveCode. Increasingly, on both OSX and Windows, we are running into to customers who's permissions prevent out app from writing to locations that were once (in older OS versions) writable. In some cases, this has been due to changes the OS manufacturer (Microsoft, Apple) have made and in more cases,, institutions, business, universities, etc. are locking down computers on their networks even more than in the past. In the cases of increased institutional lock down, local IT staff have often been able to adjust the permissions. Increasingly (as with the next release of our main app) we have moved to creating a folder in specialFolderPath("Documents") for our company and placing all app files in their as it is the one of the only fully cross platform places to be both read and writable.
