    LBZ should have AL6, not AL5

    OK, got it all installed... finally..... I have a couple of questions though.

    1. The new install process logs everything so that it knows what needs to be uninstalled at a later date. Checking the "un-install" file indicates that it will remove my home directory. Is this correct or am I getting worried over nothing?

      REMOVE_DIR(\\NETDRIVE\user);

      REMOVE_DIR(\\NETDRIVE\user\EFILive);

      REMOVE_DIR(\\NETDRIVE\user\EFILive\V7.5);

      REMOVE_DIR(\\NETDRIVE\user\EFILive\V7.5\Bins);
      As you can see we have networked "home" drives and we run a roaming profile. I wounder if this has caused an issue?
    2. Progressing with the roaming profile stuff, is it possible to include an option to change the default "user location", like we can with the default "program location"? Given the laptop I use has this roaming profile, I can't actually run EFILive with it using my home directory. The quota settings result in EFILive locking up with no disk space. What I have been doing is to move all that data to a different directory under C:\ and then manually editing the registry to point to the new location. It works fine, but makes upgrades a little more work

    The uninstaller won't remove anything that it did not install itself.
    And some things that it did install it will leave when uninstalling - such as the license file and other user settings. (Some messed up installs actually did remove the license file and user data but this latest one should not).

    You can change the folders in the V7 Scan Tool properties window.
    V7 is not configured for roaming profiles. (Version 8 is/will be).

    Excellent. I had to check after being bitten once before. I had an application that decided it needed to remove c:\windows\system32 when it uninstalled its self.....

    I meant AL6 (the one that looks like a porcupine) - sorry.
