I recently updated my Visual Basic 6.0 application and now include an exe.manifest file to prevent UAC Virtualization. After applying this update, some users can't find their data files (Access MDB files) and after a system search they end up finding it in C:\Users\<username>AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files(x86).
What is this folder area for and how/when do files get moved to this area? How do we prevent it? I'm hoping now that my application uses a .manifest this won't happen again. Did the files get placed there before the manifest was used as the application was being placed in UAC Virtualization?
