Add note about where you install your app to

I'll come back and sort this later but there are caveats about where you run your original app from. I'll add a section to the readme about this. (Just for Windows)

@adam-lynch Is it possible to update the app if we install the app in program files by adding an entry in window's registry to access the program files directory. ??

@tarun1188 I've never done it. Probably? The problem is permissions. Another possible option is to use node-windows to create a Windows service with elevated permissions to do it, but I've never done it.

@adam-lynch Thanks for the breadcrumb. I'll try that out and if i find something useful i'll update it here.
