Subject: I renamed and moved The Chessbase folder and Fritz 7 fired up anyway!!

I renamed the Chessbase folder and then moved it from Program Files to My
Documents just to temporarily get it out of the present Chessbase folder at the
time. All to be put back later.
I clicked onto the Fritz 7 icon and Fritz 7 program opened up anyway. That is
wierd. If you do that with Fritz 6, it won't find the chessbase folder.
If you just rename an engine folder, it should not find the engines until you
rename it back to Engines. You can keep many engine folders in the Chessbase
folder as long as the ones you are not using at the time have been RENAMED to
any thing you so desire. It seems that with Fritz 7, if all of your Engines
folders (whether that be 1 or 20) have been renamed it will find the Engine it
needs. It also found the Fritz 7 folder.
Is this normal?
Programmers, any opinions?
That is wierd!
