--- Comment #8 from Ben R <divestoclimb at gmail.com> ---
I don't think Vmindefault is intended to be run standalone, it's usually
launched from Vminteq17. Once Vminteq17 has run it will copy a bunch of files
into the chosen user folder location. So Vmindefault can be tested in
isolation, but you'd need the user folder to be created and populated first,
which I have in my environment since I was able to get that part working with
dotnet45.

What's odd is that when I run Vmindefault I get a
System.IO.DirectoryNotFoundException: Could not find a part of the path
"Z:\home\benr\benr\userfolder.txt". My $HOME is /home/benr so I don't know
where the extra "benr" is coming from. I got curious to see what would happen
if I made that path valid with a symlink, and I instead got
System.ArgumentException: Illegal characters in path.

That pull request looks promising. I'll try building a patched Mono and see
what happens.
