It's no surprise that the files you found won't move - that's a protected
folder in XP (although I'm yet to be convinced that that is a good idea!<g>)
Unfortunately, the fact that they are *there* and not elsewhere, means that
either you have not set the Folder View options correctly, or the files
don't exist where they should!!
Where to go from here?
First, try resetting your Folder View options so that you are able to see
both Hidden, and System Files/Folders (TWO settings!) - repeat the search
and see what you get.
If you get the same result, then it's a distinct possibility that you have
either
1) improperly uninstalled the 'Step-by-Step' training
or
2) your OEM never installed it properly in the first place
Is there an entry for the 898458 update in Add/Remove Programs??
If so, then try uninstalling and reinstalling it - which could solve the
problem
Is there an entry for it in Add/Remove Programs?
Do you have the CD available for installing it?
If the answer is Yes/Yes - then try uninstalling and reinstalling the beast,
and then doing the update (again!!)
Let us know what happens....
(and I admit, I'm scrabbling for ideas - since I've never seen the
'Step-by-Step' software!)
