[WriteLog] Win 7 novice at work - help please

[Ed Muns]

The latest versions of WriteLog conveniently put a link to the active
writelog.ini file in the WriteLog startup folder: 'Edit WriteLog.ini'.  This
avoids having to remember where a given version of Windows stores the active
writelog.ini file.

In Vista and Windows 7, though, the writelog.ini file should be exactly
where you were looking for it in the path below.  Windows automatically
creates the AppData directory when the first application is installed by
User 'Bob'.  What user account installed WriteLog on this computer?  That's
where you'll find writelog.ini.
