The Macola INI file location in Windows depends on the version, but common locations are C:\Windows\MACOLA7.INI and, on some Vista/Progression 7.7 setups, C:\ProgramData\Progression\Settings\Macola7.ini.

Typical locations

  • Older setups: C:\Windows\MACOLA7.INI.
  • Vista/Progression 7.7: C:\ProgramData\Progression\Settings\Macola7.ini via the %ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Progression\Settings folder.

What to check

  • If you are trying to fix a workstation, look for the INI in the location your Macola version uses, because the path can vary by installation and version.
  • The related setup files may also reference a mapped drive such as M:\macsql\Install\Setup.exe rather than a UNC path.

Practical note

A quick way to narrow it down is to search the machine for MACOLA7.INI and VTOOLS.INI, since those are the main configuration files mentioned for Progression installations.
