    <p>I know that commonappdata (All Users) can hold system-wide application settings, but under Vista/7 non-elevated users can't write to that directory.</p> <p>Is there a folder which is shared among users and any non-admin user can write to it?</p> <p>Here is why I need this: My app is installed in PF directory by an Inno Setup installer with elevated rights. Then when the actual non-admin user runs the program, it copies its settings to the user's AppData directory using another non-elevated Inno Setup installer. Upon deinstalling the program (initiated by the system-wide installer with admin rights) I want to uninstall the program's files from each users' AppData directory.</p> <p>I can think of two solutions: 1. Getting a list of Windows users and iterating through their AppData dirs (seems way too complicated) 2. Storing the paths to the uninstallers in the above mentioned common user data directory.</p> <p>Any ideas?</p> <p>Thanks!</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
