Thanks for the comments, suggestions, and the SIGIL_DEFAULT_TEMP_FOLDER explanation. That simplifies things. The default save location is under the user's profile AppData tree. If on a normal close Sigil cleans up its own temp files (which it does) where is the last folder accessed cached?

Point of information: When Uninstalling Sigil, the <user>/AppData/Local/sigil-ebook directory tree remains. This is likely where some of the program's memory is retained across the Uninstall and Install processes.

After Uninstall and deletion of <user>/AppData/Local/sigil-ebook directory, the program now opens to Sigil's Program Files directory.

Program still crashes upon "Add/Existing Files" from new manuscript folder, but loads okay from previous manuscript's folder. Some other data is still persisting despite the Uninstall, deletion of <user>/AppData/Local/sigil-ebook, deletion of <user>/AppData/Local/Temp/Sigil-xxxxxx, and "fresh" Install.

Registry perhaps?
