Yes, it is really %appdata%:

SHGetSpecialFolderPath(GetActiveWindow?(),path,CSIDL_APPDATA,TRUE);

(on linux, it is ~/.CO-LaN)

Note that the copy is not actually required, the Ideal thermo PPM will do that automatically upon creation if the folder does not exist

If copy is not required, ReadMe? file should be updated. So far it says "

The property package definitions in the Data folder must be copied to the %appdata%\CO-LaN_IdealThermoExample folder." "Must" should not be used if I understand well.
