Len DiMaggio commented on JBDS-3695:
------------------------------------

Just thinking - we should document for the users whether they must/must not run the installer as an admin user.

> So if the user selects an existing JBDS installation from their Program Files folder and lets us install JDK, the installation will fail when the installer tries to change jbdevstudio.ini to point to the JDK we installed.
> The problem once again is in windows magic, it does not allow to modify files in a protected folder without administrative rights.
