Why are software developers stupid?

On my two new systems I have built in cardreaders, the new motherboards can boot from these so when you have the system setup with the OS installed the first harddrive will be H:\

Over 80% of all software is to fucking stupid to realise this, so they try to load config or grapics from c:\ and fails, either crashes right away or constantly throws up errors, or tries by default to save into c:\my documents\etc..

There's system libraries for windows development you fucking dolts, USE THEM, if you use the system libraries, they will automatically tell you where the root of the program is, and you can then load configs or whatever relative to that path. This was something I learned in windows programming courses the first week, the system libraries (Windows DLLS) are there to abstract function calls so you don't have to think (and fuck up) the underlying implementations.
