Tried that and it still wrote to %APPDATA% plus it also creates alot of registry entries e.g. HKCU\RtColorPicker & HKCU\Software\Datastead\TVideoGrabber.WebcamVideoDiary\. Also I just found out that it's an evaluation copy of 43 days only!

Hmm...I get nothing in AppData. The registry keys created are because of the webcam usage, not settings specific to this app, I think. The registration is free and I got a lifetime license, being an older member of DC forums. But this is not ready for prime time yet!

FARR isn't here, ScreenshotCaptor is not here and I think this won't be here, in the database. I think they are considered nagware or something and it seems there are some issues regarding their portability. I use them all and I'm very happy with them.
