I think I understand. But in the case of DXBase, since it doesn't appear that
it will ever be updated anyway, the Program Files location should be fine and we
wouldn't have to jump through the hoops of running with Administrator
privileges. Right?

Windows Vista, 7, 8 and 8.1 protect the files in the program files directories

(the original versions are in the regular program folder directories, the
updated versions in the virtualstore section) from the normal location so it
appears that your updates to it are never detected.
