使用InnoIDE写入AppData目录？

Question

I need to write to the:

C:\\Users\\user\\AppData\\Roaming\\AppName

folder during the setup process. I'm using the InnoIDE program for setup, and it's awesome. However, it seems to be lacking an 'AppData' special folder for easily accessing that directory.

For example, you can use: DestDir: "{app}" to write the application directory.

But how do you get to AppData? Is there a list of all the preset DestDir options?

Answer 1

Arg, got it.

{userappdata} → C:\\Users\\user\\AppData\\Roaming\\AppName

as found here: http://news.jrsoftware.org/news/innosetup/msg74694.html

Answer 2

It is not recommend to write to AppData directory using InnoIDE. You better save user-specific data to a shared location first ( eg under {app} ) and have your application copy it from there on first startup.

Answer 3

As you said in your own answer, {userappdata} is the one you need. The help manual has a list of all the Inno Setup directory constants .
