Nevermind...

I figured out how to get 3.6.2 re-pointed to the proper place to play the
sounds.

Problem was:
The 3.6.2 installer, by default, sets some paths to users ... AppData ...
roaming ... (etcetera); and I installed to C:\POV-Ray (forced during the
install), but the installer does not take that into account. Fixed within
POV-Ray by invoking the Render menu -> Sounds -> and re-pointing to the actual
WAV locations in C:\POV-Ray.

Also... fixed the Help File problem by copying the C:\POV-Ray\help directory
(and contents) into Users\(ID)\AppData\Roaming\POV-Ray\v3.6\

Its looking like I should have just installed to the default directory that the
3.6.2 installer wanted to install to in the first place? Is that right? And to
avoid the Vista versus INI Files in Program Files problem, the installer places
INIs and INCLUDES (etc) into \Documents?

I am just going to uninstall / reinstall I think.
