The "per user" config file, mm.cfg, is outlined here: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/flex/using/WS2db454920e96a9e51e63e3d11c0bf 69084-7fc9.html

If you want to modify the system level mms.cfg, that'll be in your C:\windows\syswow64\macromed\flash folder

Where is the mm.cfg file located when an AIR app is runnning? Or putting it another way, how do I get the AIR app installer to update the mm.cfg file for the user if I develop on a Mac and the user installs the app on windows/linus/another Mac/iOS/Android/QNX/AIR for TV, etc?

What kind of changes do you need to make to the mm.cfg? The AIR app installer won't touch this file, so if you needed to migrate/modify it, you'll need to do it programmatically.

How do you programmatically modify the Flash player configuration settings? Is this a pre-launch change or at runtime?

I want to enable AS3Trace and TraceOutputBufferred so I an see where the application is spending most of it's time during certain sections of the application.

Would running under ADL work for you? Getting trace output from a release version isn't officially supported. However, users have been able to accomplish this in the past, see this blog post for more details:
