I’m using Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.ApplicationData) in my application.
If the application is installed on a USB drive and run from there will it still be able to access this directory?
Will it be a directory on the host machine still, or will it be a directory on the USB drive?
Thanks
This will always be a directory on the machine.
ApplicationData is a folder where applications installed can use to store data which are profile-specific. So in contract to where they are installed (usually Program Files directory) which is not profile specific, this data will be different for each user logged on to the machine.
