I even went into My Computer and went into the Legacy folder on the hard drive and saw there were two icons (Coats of Arms), one for Legacy and the other one for Legacy40. I tried both and still got the welcome message to the update. I am wondering if the file is simply not there. In other words, the update is not attaching itself to anything even though I get a message saying it has been successfully installed.
