Yes, All Users is the default, and in retrospect given that I'm the only user on this laptop, I'd have been just as well picking it..

I'm still early in the process of learning C++, and for that matter programming in general, and as such it's not something that I have a huge amount of time to work on unfortunately :-( However..
