Did not work for me on Vista. Apparently on vista it also creates the same GUID directory in a hidden directory called ProgramData. We definately need an official backup system for this.


Well, I only tried XP and 2003, not Vista yet... And yes, we do need an "official" backup/"re-install on another machine" procedure. Even if it's without an helper program, just having the instructions wouldn't be a bad start... And if they managed to find a way *not* to waste 2 GB of disk space for "cached installation files", that would be nice too: having 700 MB worth of CodeGear stuff install into over 3.6 GB of hard disk space... That's almost a 1:6 ratio... Not even Visual Studio with the full MSDN uses that much, IIRC...
