Data files in the My Games folder

At trying to understand something strange about the mod Supersauer (I downloaded and installed it today), I discovered Sauerbraten wrote data files in the folder "My Games" on the disk C.

I never installed Sauerbraten on this disk.

Is it possible to make the game don't write any file outside from the game folder ?

Try to use the "-g" command in your sauerbraten.bat of SuperSauer (or whatever executing .bat-file is being used to startup)

I changed the address after the option "-d" in both .bat files. It work without problem and, apparently, without writing anything outside from the game fofder.

content of sauerbraten.bat :
@ECHO OFF

set SAUER_BIN=bin

IF /I "%PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE%" == "amd64" (
set SAUER_BIN=bin64
)
IF /I "%PROCESSOR_ARCHITEW6432%" == "amd64" (
set SAUER_BIN=bin64
)

start %SAUER_BIN%sauerbraten.exe -q%SAUER_BIN%..GamesSauerbraten -glog.txt %*


content of sauerbraten.bat :

set SAUER_BIN=bin

IF /I "%PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE%" == "amd64" (
