Thank you. I tried "pvengine-sse2.exe /INSTALL" as Administrator which gave me
the following alert: "Could not find the following file: 'D:\Program
Files\POV-Ray\renderer\povray.ini' Use path of running EXE? (Selecting NO will
exit.)"

A click on the yes button gave me "Could not find the following file:
'D:\Program Files\POV-Ray\renderer\povray.ini' Cannot install settings."

Then I tried "pvengine-sse2.exe /INSTALL D:\POV-Ray" which gave me "Could not
find the following file: 'D:\POV-Ray\renderer\povray.ini' Use path of running
EXE? (Selecting NO will exit.)" which did not work at first. After creating the
directory "renderer" and moving the povray.ini, "pvengine-sse2.exe /INSTALL
D:\POV-Ray" gives a dialog "[Home path is d:\POV-Ray] Success!" and indeed,
POV-Ray runs ok.

It only complains about a missing COLORS.INC file, even after I added the
correct include path to povray.ini. But scenes render just fine so I switched
off the reminder and things are fine now. Thanks for the help.
