[emphasis added] Short term, that file location is no problem. Longer term, it won't fly. You may not be able to write *anything* to the directory containing prothon.exe, except at install time. This file and any others like it should go in the user's profile, either in the Application Data or Local Settings\Application Data folder, depending on whether it should be uploaded and downloaded as part of a roaming profile. I only have a minute right now, but later on I can get you the APIs to use if you're not already familiar with them. (For Windows; I don't know the ins and outs for Linux and other OSes--but in general there should be both the concept of the application install directory and a user-specific data directory.) -Mike
