If possible can a future release of IDE and compiler check if the OS is vista or not?

If not vista, use the file storage behavior we are used to.

If vista, hide files in funny places.



Hope it is possible (possible as in not too much of a hack, not as in can it be done technically)

First of all, those are not funny places, and the IDE does not try to hide anything...
Those are the intended folders for Applications to store their settings/temporary files.
PB now simply handles that the way it should be, not just for Vista compatibility.

I think the behavior should remain consistent among all Windows versions.
You can always adjust the paths with the commandline options if you don't like them.

Ah well, it was worth groveling a bit - you never know your luck.
