Description

###@###.### 2002-07-31


If JRE is installed in a non-default location. JaWS is still installed under Program Files directory (default location). 


OS	: Windows
JDK	: JRE 1.4.0_x

Steps to reproduce:
1. Install JRE 1.4.0_x, specify a non-default directory.


Results:

Although the JRE is installed in a non-default location, the Java Web Start which is also installed, is installed in Program Files (default directory).

-------------------
With mantis, this is no longer true.
java web start does not have a seperate installer.  it only installs within 
the jare as part of the jare install

WORK AROUND




1. Uninstall Java Web Start from Control Panel - Add/Remove Programs.

2. Run Java Web Start installation file in JRE folder. This gives the option to the user to specify where they want to install Java Web Start.
