  Yes figured that out.

I am testing now how it goes if you install eclipse in a read only dir..
Then in my home dir a .eclipse dir is created
And if i install it then yes my feature and plugin are popping up there.
Then of course it couldn't also update the ini file and then in the dir:

.eclipse\org.eclipse.platform_4.13.0_396182393_win32_win32_x86_64\configuration

i have there a eclipse.ini.ignored with the right -vm thing...

But i guess that ignored says enough ;)

Its really ignored.

So that would mean if somebody installs it in a readonly location that has
already a jvm shipped with it.
Then if a update is send in that also has a new jvm plugin, then that
installed correctly but it won't be used...

So i guess any touchpoint code that alters the ini file all have no effect
when it can't update the ini file right besides the exe?

I wonder if the exe file can't also look into that other dir ?
