If it makes registry entries, chek the registry. Then confirm its
existence by checking for physical files. If you can, get the path
from the registry entry - or you will ahve to either:
1) Ask the user
2) Search all the local hard drives to see if they exist
Best solution is if the app exposes a COM interface - just try and
create it.
