ENHANCED - Better Handling for Installations With Multiple User Accounts

This version of Benderlink allows for installation on Windows setups that use multiple users with different login names. Benderlink can now properly handle unique configurations for each user by starting with a copy of common starting configuration files. Previous installations required that the installer be logged into Windows as the user name that will use the computer with Benderlink. When logging on as a different user, Benderlink would lose track of the configuration files. The method described on the right follows the Microsoft-suggested method of handling program data for multi-user logins for Windows from Vista and newer (Examples: Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8)

Starting Common Setup Data The Benderlink installation program installs an initial set of common configuration files for all users. In Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8, these files are stored in c:\ProgramData\BenderlinkChiyodaKeins When a new user (new Windows login) starts Benderlink, the common setup files are used to establish a unique set of starting configuration files assigned to that user's private c:\users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\BenderlinkChiyodaKeins folder. The bender and measuring center files are stored in Documents\BenderlinkChiyodaKeins. If these folders and files do not exist when Benderlink starts, then Benderlink will copy common configuration files from the common folder into this folder to give the user a starting set of sample parts. Benderlink will also automatically assign that Documents location as the default part storage path. (This path can be configured inside Benderlink to other paths.)
