Yes, this is a good change. Not just to enable multiple PyDS users per machine. To install under Program Files
typically requires admin priveleges, and many folks are wisely starting to avoid that for regular use (or may
be restricted from doing so). Installing under USERPROFILE is definitely better.

Hopefully your upgrade package will make this move easy for those who've already installed under Program
Files.

Thx,
