Taking into consideration that users could be running different versions of Windows and computers may be shared amongst multiple users requiring the batch file to work with multiple profiles, it is recommended you make use of [http://ss64.com/nt/syntax-variables.html Windows Environment Variables] to allow for the batch files to work in any environment of Windows.
 
The SETTING.INI file saves in the following folder:<br>
'''%APPDATA%\SmartSimple'''
 
And the multiple configurations are stored in a SmartSimple folder created within the user’s profile:<br>
'''%USERPROFILE%'''
 
If you paste the above into your Windows Run box it will direct you to the correct path regardless of the version of Windows you are running (assuming your version of Windows is no earlier than 2000).

== Configuring the Batch File to Function in Multiple Environments ==
Taking into consideration that users could be running different versions of Windows and computers may be shared amongst multiple users, this would require the batch file to work with multiple profiles as well as multiple configurations. While one workaround would be to create a different batch file for each install type, our recommendation is to make use of [http://ss64.com/nt/syntax-variables.html Windows Environment Variables] to allow for the batch files to work in any environment of Windows.
