❔ Windows Apps Resources

Does anyone know why some app devs choose to put app resources in folders within documents/user folder rather than just keep it all in the main app folder in
C:/ ?
C:/ ?
Like how games sometimes put things in
documents/My Games
documents/My Games
Is it a windows permissions thing? Or do they just do it by convention? Is it bad as a dev to just put it all in the main folder?
