December 19, 20178 yr I know that this topic has been beaten to death, but I'd like to clarify it again. In the meantime I have DLL and EXE in C:\ProgramData\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v4 and DLL and EXE in C:\Users\Owner\AppData\Roaming\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v4 folder. Would appreciate if someone confirm that it's correct 9950X3D, X870E ROG CROSSHAIR HERO, Corsair Dominator Titanium 64GB DDR5-6000 PC5-48000, ASUS RTX 5070Ti 16GB, 9100 PRO 4TB Samsung ,990 PRO 4TB Samsung, AX1600i 1600 Watt 80 Plus Titanium ATX, ASUS 360 ARGB EXTREME 360mm Liquid CPU Cooling Kit.
December 20, 20178 yr Both are correct. 3rd party developers use both locations and there's only modest logic to it. In fact, the folder: C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v4 would work also, but to my knowledge, no developer uses it. From www.stackoverflow.com: Quote ProgramData contains application data that is not user specific.This data which will be available to all users on the computer. Any global data should be put in here. AppData folder contains configuration settings, downloaded information/files for a particular user. So, for example any user specific preferences and profile configurations can be stored in the AppData folder. The AppData folder is further divided into three subfolders Roaming - This folder contains data that can move with your user profile from a computer to another. Local - This folder contains data that will not move with your user profile. LocalLow - You can put in lowlevel access information such as information related to web browser running in a protected mode in this folder.
