Default location of what ?

If you found entries at HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Curr entVersion\Installer\Folders, then they're put there by the Microsoft Trusted Installer when the installable versions (32bit and 64bit versions) are installed, its needed to uninstall/reinstall the installed versions. Those entries are NOT used by calibre they are used by the Microsoft Windows Operating System!
