Gerry,
To be honest, I am not certain. Why? Because of:
1. You haven't told us how you installed. i.e. a multi-user install
or a single-user install. Under XP these could be in different
places.
2. I am not a Windows guru so have to guess.
If you let us know these details, I am certain that one of the more
experienced windows users will be able to help you.
