Location of Deploy.NSF needs to be Changeable

I think you’ve helped identify the problem – deploy.nsf is in a read-only folder and Notes doesn’t work with databases on read-only media.

The open item is to get a fix such that Notes can be configured so that deploy is in a location that the local “Users” group has read/write access to – a subfolder of ProgramData seems like the logical location, based on the expected Windows file system security. What options exist today?

If this doesn’t exist today (which I understood from your previous response), what plans are there to address this defect.
