No, that's not stupid :) I've already restarted my computer, but nothing has changed. I located where that folder should be and it didn't even exist, so I must have already deleting it. Interesting note, last night I went to try and install the old Intel XDK Chrome add on, and that actually starts the installer. It hangs up towards the end, but I think that is the internet connection.
If I get that installed, can I update to XDK New from the old program?
are you on osx? what is the name of your xdk2 installation file?
