Installer Miss-Places the update

I must report that I tried W32-452.exe for the 6th time just now.  The steps taken were *identical* to those taken in the other 5 tries, i.e. I used UPDATE after the installer informed me it had located the old version in C:\PMAIL\Programs.

This time, the install succeeded.  The new 4.52 prog sees all the old files--it even found an old draft I wasn't aware of.

I can't understand any of this, but I'm happy.....  ~jess

I seem to have lost my lfirst post, so I'll start again.

Our system is Win XP

I've tried two updates, with the same results.  For example, using W32-452.exe:

this installer recognized the existing version, 4.41, and found it in C:\PMAIL\Programs

but it placed the update prog into C:\PMAIL, not \PMAIL\Programs

I can run the new 4.52 version, but it can't find my existing eMail files.  I could move the new stuff into the \PMAIL\Programs folder, but I dont know which ones to move.  In any case, I'd rather let the installer do it, to make sure I don't lose the old eMail files.

I'd appreciate some advice.  thanks...~jess
