5.3 Files, paths and file formats
The Dazzler program uses various files for its operation. This section describes these files and
their locations.
5.3.1 Default directory
For software version V500i and higher, the installation procedure defines the default directory
by adding a section in the .ini file. Previous software versions used the directory where the
executable was located (C:\Program Files\Dazzler), but Windows 7 and following Windows
versions added write protection to system folders, hence it was no longer possible to write to
C:\Program Files\Dazzler without escalating to admin privileges. The subtree C:\dazzler
is given rw access to everyone during the installation, thus solving the permissions problems.
The ’default directory’ is by default c:\dazzler\data for a single generator, and c:\data-1
and c:\dazzler\data-2 for installations with 2 Dazzlers.
In single Dazzler installations, the ’default directory’ is defined in the INI file which filename
is the same as the excutable file, e.g.:
C:\Program Files\Dazzler\Dazzler-V560b.ini
C:\Program Files\Dazzler\Dazzler-V560b.exe.
A section like below is present in the INI file.
[Dazzler-V560b]
DefaultDir=C:\dazzler\data
The INI file may change this default to a different folder
