Due to security changes in Windows Vista, some modifications to the location of configuration and user files used by CitectSCADA have been made.
When installed on Windows XP or earlier, configuration and project files are by default stored in the Documents and Settings/All Users/Application Data/Citect/CitectSCADA 7.xx/ folder. When installed on Windows Vista, configuration and project files are by default stored in the ProgramData/Citect/CitectSCADA 7.xx/ folder. Install locations are as follows:
| File type | Platform | Install Path |
|---|---|---|
| Configuration files such as the citect.ini file | Pre-Vista | Documents and Settings/All Users/Application Data/Citect/CitectSCADA 7.xx/Config |
| Vista | ProgramData/Citect/CitectSCADA 7.xx/Config | |
| User directory | Pre-Vista | Documents and Settings/All Users/Application Data/Citect/CitectSCADA 7.xx/User |
