ICE91 posts a warning if a file, .ini file, or shortcut file is installed into a per-user only directory. These warnings are harmless if the package is only used for installation in the per-user installation context and never used for per-machine installations.
Files, .ini files, or shortcuts in per-user only directories are installed into a particular user's profile. Even if the user sets the ALLUSERS property for a per-machine installations, files, .ini files, or shortcuts in per-user only directories are not copied in to the "All Users" profile and are not available to other users.
