I have an application that uses files saved in %ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Database\Dated\ and I would like to make this application portable by using JauntePE. Now I am aware this might not be possible since JauntePE is selective of what it redirects of folders, but if it is I would really like some help to accomplish this. If not does anyone have any other suggestion as to how I might accomplish this? Thanks.

To include subdirectory of special folder for redirection, try this
[FilesystemInclude]
1=%40%\Database\Dated

Or, to include %ALLUSERSPROFILE% for redirection,
[FilesystemInclude]
1=40

It is all in the readme.html>The Runtime Ini>Portablizer>File System.

Great, I didn't really believe there was a way to solve this with JauntePE, although I am a bit confused because I have read the JauntePE help file several times (which I always do before posting) and I could not remember seeing something that would redirect %ALLUSERSPROFILE% so when I looked for the folder code you used (40) I found it to be used instead of %USERPROFILE% not %ALLUSERSPROFILE%. Are you sure this is correct? Will this work? Thanks.

Yes, you were right, the (40) token is for the %userprofile% directory. Sorry about that.
Looks like you found the special folder that redllar miss. Hope he notice about it and make the fix

redllar has update his documentation in the build17 and now we know that it is possible to redirect others directory beside the special folder.

For your case, i have successfully redirect %ALLUSERSPROFILE% by adding the following runtime configuration

Code: Select all

[FilesystemInclude]
1=%ALLUSERSPROFILE%

[SpecialFolders]
%ALLUSERSPROFILE%=.\Common
