Current versions of Vize and XPize.Net make use of a XML file as database for the files to patch. That XMl file, called FileList.xml has hardcoded paths to file, meaning that only if a "Program Files" folder is found, a file on that directory will be patched. That won't work on Spanish "Archivos de Programa" for example.   Impact: High   IF we are going to use the same method: In order to solve this we will need a method to auto-update FileList.xml using .Net "Environment.GelFolderPath()" method. Any other solutions welcomed.

This issue no-longer applies as Anolis uses environment variables like %programfiles% and %systemdir% for paths (and before anyone asks, it recognises x64 variables too).
