Notes.ini location

Hi,

Is there any documentation about the steps performed by the Lotus Notes client 7.X/8.X to locate the notes.ini file?

I’m working on an AddInMenu and need to detect that file to register the AddIn. I currently check the following paths keys: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Lotus\Notes[7, 8].0\NotesIniPath

and

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Lotus\Notes[7, 8].0\Path\ + [notes.ini]

However, it seems to fail on some setups. So, is there any other place that I should look for the notes.ini files?

Thanks

Subject: Hi

Well, notes.ini should be there no matter what. Do the keys exist in the setups where the program fails?

Do they have something in common? I don’t what happens if you update a client.
