On modern installations of Windows, the Program Files (x86) folder is =
read/read-execute only and requires UAC approval to be written to, in =
general.

Looking at my machine, I see that only setup.ini and soffice.ini were =
created at the time of 4.1.2 installation (2015-11-10 for the one I am =
looking at) and the remainder, including bootstrap.ini, were copied =
directly from the setup itself and have earlier time stamps (mostly =
2015-10-21 when the RC was built).

That answers the question about whether these are actually =
produced/used.  Indeed they are.

Thanks, Damjan, this clears up a great deal.
