I can confirm this is an issue and produces some very strange oddities.
A couple times I got ugly hangs after trying to load a global test app
from a subdirectory of the profile folder. Other times I ended up with
two instances of appget.vbs running, which is the first .vbs file
alphabetically in my profile's top directory. Never did my test app load
properly. I tried in both %weprofile%\apps\test.vbs and %weprofile%\gw
apps\test.vbs.

Jeff,
I've never known this to work, although, admittedly, I've not tried. I
keep all of my scripts on a network drive; I develop on one machine, and
test on another. Can you tell me exactly how you're loading your app?

Now with 7.5 beta, I can’t type this, and when I use the open file
dialog, which will open my sub folder, let me select the script file
that I want, but it will still not open it.
Why is this no longer available in 7.5? It worked fine with 7.2!
Am I the only one that stores script files in subfolders in my profile
default folder?
I have 4 subfolders with over a thousand files which I could easily
access this way with 7.2.

If you're not using your user profile directory for loading apps, then
you must specify a full path name.

using WE 7.5 Beta, Vista Home Sp1.
I am unable to manually load apps from a subFolder within my default
apps folder.
My subfolder is named a.
When I type
a\filename
Window-Eyes says no such file.
It does not matter whether I type the .vbs or not.
If I copy the file into the main default folder, it loads just fine.
Unless I'm missing something, this is a pretty big problem.
