I don't know about "a number of releases" ago. It seems to have changed between V5R4 and V7.1. And the install didn't move things for me. Perhaps there's a note somewhere in the documentation but it certainly caught me by surprise when my macros stopped working.

That changed a number of releases ago, I believe. It allows at least for
individual settings, because there is also the option to put them under
your own Documents and Settings area.

As a followup, things have gotten even weirder, or at least more
confusing. For example, it seems that IBM moved where things are
stored. Everything used to be in this directory:

C:\Program Files\IBM\Client Access\Emulator\Private

This included workstation layouts (.ws), macros (.mac), keyboard maps
(.kmp) and so on. Now at least some of that stuff has been moved to:

C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\IBM\Client
Access\Emulator\private

It's an option on the PC5250 tab of the IBM i Access Properties dialog.
It got set when I tried to check the box to store window information in
the session file.
