Yeah, that's what I said .. you notice they said "See what you can do to get it all back for us ..". > And most apps will be in %programfiles% in any case.

So I saved that key as a text file; copied the path; set it in Control Panel, and logged out. Now when I log in as the usual user, I see the above. And I *think* it's correct. Waiting to hear back from my users ...
