Summary

0001482: ini hard to find in 7

Description

Wheres ini command in installed (nor portable, in which it appears in right place) Zandronum tells me it's inside program files. There isn't. I enabled seeing hidden and even system files- it's not there. It's in Z:\Users\me\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files\Zandronum instead.
I know probably some OS shenanigans are going on, probably to not allow normal user-run programs to change important stuff, so why not for vista/7/8 move ini to some cosy place where people will seek for it, like appdata, or even nicer, somewhere in My Documents, best making it also a default Doomseeker wad downloading/seeking place. Other easy method would be a link to place of ini.

Steps To Reproduce

Install Zandronum on Windows 7 x86
Search for ini
