Re: SCR Files, Where Where Where
Yep, like HM says, those are the usual places... although I believe you can right-click to install a screensaver from any directory and it'll get registered to wherever it was (which is fine as long as you don't change the location at a later date  )

Re: SCR Files, Where Where Where
gone to C:\Windows\Resourses but theres only 1 file in there and that says Themes. I click on that i get a lot of folders each with Windows Visual Styles and Windows Theme Files.

Re: SCR Files, Where Where Where
Mine (WinXP Professional) are all in Windows\System32... have you checked there too?
Also, have you got "Hide certain file types" or whatever it's called disabled?

Scrub that last bit, I just checked and it still shows .scr files even with that option enabled.
