WinDaq and WinDaq addon installations store
important configuration parameters in TPDATAQ.INI located in Windows directory.
When Windows 10/8/Vista decides there is a need of virtualization
for WinDaq, it copies TPDATAQ.INI to User\<username>\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Windows, which is a hidden
folder, and work on it. Once a copy is created, WinDaq uses the
virtualized copy instead of the one in Windows directory.
As the result, any new installation that adds parameters
to the original TPDATAQ.INI will not be picked up by WinDaq.
When this happens, if you search for TPDATAQ.INI in the command prompt
under Windows, you will find something like this, multiple copies
of TPDATAQ.INI
