My experience. The BDE will install all OK (from elavated priv), but
the app won't run in the default mode. The problems and solutions
were.
a/ The pdoxusrs.net file (which normally gets dropped into the root
'\'): this is not allowed there now. Instead set a common location
for this file with the {commonappdata} (found with
SHGetPathFromIdList). That location root is also protected from
single files so you need to make a sub-folder there. Also this new
folder will need its permissions changed to allow all Users to change
(modify) data within. I did all this with the installer.
In the app, set this new folder value into the Session.NetFileDir
property.
b/ If you have a data base with your app, then it will need to be
located like above in a common data location. You cannot write to the
same folder as the installed app.
c/ Set the Session.PrivateDir to something where file writing is
freely available.
