Cannot alter. They are
not real folders - they are shortcuts -per the pop up notices. If I click in the pop up, it leads to stuff that is all grayed out and I cannot make any changes. So I wonder why these "folders" even exist.

Re: Where is Audacity installed?
Well, I used Windows File Explorer on my W10 desktop PC to search for "Music", which finds both "Music" and "My Music". It looks to me like every folder named "Music" is a real folder while every folder named "My Music" is marked as a shortcut - the little arrow icon within the folder icon. And I ge...

Re: Where is Audacity installed?
@roadsterUK I've attached Denied1.png that shows that I cannot even click on (list) the contents of a specific folder that is within my user scope. I did just notice that folders I am denied access to seem to be shortcuts rather than actual files or folders (that little arrow in the icon for the fol...

Re: Where is Audacity installed?
@roadsterUK I will check with Task Manager later today. I have created a non-admin account for myself on the laptop. I assume I will have to install/customize any/all softwares that I previously installed to my admin account, but when I created the new non-admin account, Windows did not allow me to ...

Re: Where is Audacity installed?
I don't remember where I got Audacity (2.3.2) - I think it was a link from maybe a CNET email or maybe a weblink I found while trying to find a download for Audacity.

Re: Where is Audacity installed?
I will set up a new account (Charlie) as normal user but will use the Robinson user to do the uninstall of Audacity. I did not set up that folder - I know nothing about it. My computer guy replaced my old hard drive with an SSD several months ago but where that folder came from - no clue. I do not k...

Re: Where is Audacity installed?

When I used the nyquist prompt I see this:
