- <li>Two installations that do not share the same administrative or non administrative install mode no longer count as the <a href="http://www.jrsoftware.org/is6help/index.php?topic=sameappnotes">same application</a>. This means you can now install in these modes side-by-side even if the installers share the same <tt>AppId</tt> setting.</li>

- <li>Added new "auto" constants which automatically map to their "common" form unless the installation is running in non administrative install mode, in which case they map to their "user" form. It is recommended to update your scripts to use these "auto" constants as much as possible to avoid mistakes. The list of added "auto" constants is: <tt>{autoappdata}</tt>, <tt>{autocf}</tt>, <tt>{autocf32}</tt>, <tt>{autocf64}</tt>, <tt>{autodesktop}</tt>, <tt>{autodocs}</tt>, <tt>{autopf}</tt>, <tt>{autopf32}</tt>, <tt>{autopf64}</tt>, <tt>{autoprograms}</tt>, <tt>{autostartmenu}</tt><tt>, {autostartup}</tt>, and <tt>{autotemplates}</tt>.</li>

- <li><b>Change in default behavior:</b> The "common" Shell Folder contants are no longer mapped to their "user" form if the installation is running in non administrative install mode. Instead they simply return the requested common directory. The list of affected "common" constants is: <tt>{commonappdata}</tt>, <tt>{commondesktop}</tt>, <tt>{commondocs}</tt>, <tt>{commonprograms}</tt>, <tt>{commonstartmenu}</tt><tt>, {commonstartup}</tt>, and <tt>{commontemplates}</tt>.</li>

|
|

|
- <li>The <tt>{userpf}</tt> and <tt>{usercf}</tt> constants and the <tt>AlwaysUsePersonalGroup</tt> [Setup] section directive can now correctly trigger a <a href="http://www.jrsoftware.org/files/is5-whatsnew.htm#useduserareaswarnings">used user areas warning</a>.</li>
