AutoPIPE installs files to the following location:
AutoPIPE is a 32 bit application and thus will be installed to the 32 bit Program Files (x86) folder. The 'Program Files' folder can only be modified by members of the 'Administrators' user groups. Typical AutoPIPE user should never move, copy, overwrite, etc.. to this installation folder without expressed direction from Bentley. Users should only modify / backup files in the User Profile or ProgramData folders.
Application Installation folder = C:\ Program Files (x86)\ Bentley\
A local user profile is created the first time that a user installed AutoPIPE on a computer. The profile is stored on the computer's local hard disk. Changes made to the local user profile are specific to the user and to the computer on which the changes are made.
Local User Profile folder = C:\ Users\ [username]\ AppData\ Local\ Bentley
User settings in the roaming profile folder contains all the files that can affect an individual user for the program. The program installation folder is read-only. Therefore, all the files containing settings are copied from the installation folder to the user profile folder at startup. If the folder is missing, AutoPIPE automatically recreates the folder and copies files from the installation folder to this new folder.
For Network users, an AutoPIPE roaming User profile is a copy of the local profile that is copied to, and stored on, a shared server. This profile is downloaded to any computer that a user logs onto on a network. Changes made to a roaming user profile are synchronized with the server copy of the profile when the user logs off. The advantage of roaming user profiles is that users do not need to create a profile on each computer they use on a network
The user settings folder can be explored by typing %appdata% in the windows explorer address bar and navigating to AutoPIPE folder under Bentley.
Roaming User Profile folder = C:\ Users\ [username]\ AppData\ Roaming\ Bentley\

All the files and directories containing program data are copied from the installation folder to the program data folder at startup. If the folder is missing, AutoPIPE automatically recreates the folder and copies files from the installation folder to this new folder.
