Running FO1&2 from Program Files

[Sduibek]

We know that if you run directly (C:\Program Files\Fallout for example) it can cause issues because of Microsoft's genius UAC technology.

What about GOG and Steam versions? Both of those are technically under Program Files as well. Do they suffer the wrath of UAC? Do the savegames for the GOG and Steam versions end up in the UserData folder or wherever?

I have the GoG versions and they run perfectly fine on Vista64.

Steam version here, works just fine. Though you should know that since im using win7 64 bit that the steam folder with all the games are located in "Program Files (x86)" as opposed to regular Program Files, dunno if that changes anything
