Reported by @bb30994 on 19 Jun 2010 19:10 UTC It's not uncommon for an installer to ask "Install for all users or for just yourself?" If they choose all users, the data files would need to be accessible to everyone. Suppose it's "home\all users" Potentially I could log out as User1 and log in as User2. If both of us have a FAH shortcut in startup, I could resume work on the current WUs -- but only if file-locking is properly considered. Suppose I "Switch Users" from User1 (leaving it running), Log on as User2. When user2 tries to start the client, he finds the files in use, and gets a message that FAH can't start because it's already running as User1.
