"Unfortunately this is known problem of Vista, when the application's
folder is write-protected. Vista tries to do virtualization and
copies downloaded files to virtual folder, but they unfortunately
cannot be copied back to application's folder to replace old files.
To solve this you can do either: manually set write permission to
the application's folder, or set write permission when you create
folder by setup program."
I would suggest you do the following. Put a launch stub in the
Application folder. Then load the actual application from the user
folder (obviously doing some CRC checks along the way). Alternatively,
create a sub folder with the actual application and set that folder's
write permissions, again with the checksum.
