You could also use "home" as it works on 3 desktop platforms and iOs.
Linux does not have a "support". and Android uses "Engine"

There should be no problem to copy/write/save a stack to the folder AppData . This is the
recommended place if your app needs to write data to disk. It can be access using
specialfolderpath("Support") or specialfolderpath(26).
Or has this really changed in Windows 10?

Yes, with Windows 10, there is a feature called Sandboxing, where even if your
logged in user has write permissions to where the stack is saving, you will
still not be able to write there. Program Files is a great example. The
solution is not to save stacks. Stacks should not be the place you save
information. Think of them as more like web forms.
I learned this the hard way. Instead you should save settings and such in a
"safe" location, either in a database or else in some kind of settings file. I
have a whole system for this. I arrayEncode an array I use runtime for my settings and
save it to disk each time a setting changes.

Failed saving onWindows 10 (all latest versions of LiveCode)
I am talking about a compiled business related stack (small compiled
splash, main stack not compiled in a resource folder and various resources)
that goes to clients.
Some of my clients experience that the main stack is not saving and will
leave two files in a state that does not allow to reopen them again. One of
the files is renamed with a tilde character "~" at the end of the filename.
This is the file "in progress" to be saved from file A to B and when the
saving was successful, the old file is removed.
