Ini file location not remembered across OS versions

Many would consider this a feature request, but I find this more like a bug.
When I installed TC, I selected the program dir as the ini file location.
After re-installing Windows, I found out the ini file location is moved to the Windows dir. The wincmd.ini file with all my settings still lingered in the program dir. This caused me lots of headaches.
I discovered this is due to the ini file location being defined in the registry (!) I had to use inireloc, something I've never used before, to get my settings back.
I think it should be the other way around. Wherever the ini file is located, the location should be defined in the program directory imo.
