Hello, I have a problem with determination of real location of executable
under Vista. In previous Windows versions, it's was easily by calling

  ExtractFilePath(Application.ExeName) // returns EXE location

However, Vista seems run executables from
"C:\Users\...\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\ProgramFiles"

Maybe someone knows how to get real location of EXE under Vista?

Million thanks in advance!
Aleksey
