Default Found a (new?) Vendor.xml location in Windows 7

I thought I'd post this, as I have had trouble upgrading my OS on Windows 7. I found 'Vendor.xml' at the usual location, but also here:

Code:
C:\Users\<myUserName>\AppData\Roaming\Research In Motion\BlackBerry\Loader XML
Deleting from the above location, as well as the usual location @:

Code:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Research In Motion\AppLoader
Allowed the upgrade to proceed, FINALLY.

SUCCESS!!


[EDIT]

You can rename the 'Vendor.xml' file(s) to 'Vendor.renamed', which will allow you to keep the files, but the software won't see them!
