I set up a folder on my machine called VFPTMP with the standard resource file in it for all our apps. I then ran the Setup Wizard with the Netsetup option and included only this folder.

Now part of the standard procedures for setting up a new machine is to run this setup to install the VFP runtime DLL's and the standard resource file. In my standard config.fpw file, I also direct all temporary files to this folder.
