Most of the setup-exes know the current path of the installation, if the programm is installed. But iMatch suggest alway a standardpath.

It where nice, when the IMatch-Setup.Exe knows the current path of the existing and suggest this path.

IMatch installs in the standard (and highly recommended) Windows program files folder.
The version of the install software I use does not offer options for me to change that, or to retrieve the previous non-standard install location etc.
I would have to upgrade to a 'Pro' version, which costs me about US$ 1000 + annual maintenance fees. Won't happen.

I can understand that, but would have been nice :-(

Applications are installed in the special "Program Files" folder for many good reasons. Including coverage by system checkpoints, file system permissions and protection, inclusion in Windows backup etc. Installing software in other folders is usually not recommended.
