Missing Data Folders?

Just performed a new installation of HCE 1.7 on Windows 7, and it seems that several of the data folders are missing. In my Documents\Hiarcs Chess folder there is only a Databases folder plus Hiarcs14.lrn and Hiarcs14AS.pgn files in the Hiarcs Chess root folder. Other folders such as Books, Documentation etc are strangely absent.

Also I'm interested in purchasing a HIARCS Chess Opening Subscription. I guess it's safe to assume that this can be used with both my Mac and PC HCE licenses?

Thank you.

My guess is you installed from a user account, then windows asked you for an admin login and then Windows installed documents in that admin login documents folder.

Yes you can use a book access subscription on both Mac and PC.

Your guess is correct, I did run the installer as an admin from a different user account. I thought Hiarcs would create those folders it needed when I ran it for the first time in the alternate account. In any case I've now copied the folders from the Admin data folder to my user folder and all is well.

Also will be picking up a subscription for the opening books. Thanks again!
