Hi Jason,
You can add and remove folder(s) from the list SAM uses to find weather files: Start SAM, and on the Location and Resource page, click Folder Settings. You should see your folder C:\document and settings\xxxxx\desktop\SAM Locations in the list. To remove the folder, click its name, and then click Remove, and then click OK to return to the Location and Resource page.
Best regards,
Paul.
