Ray, I don't have Windows 7 anymore, so I cannot remember where those 
files were stored before Win10 assimilated my computer. I would look in 
the C:\, c:\Windows, 
C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Windows, ?

Make sure you have rights to write to the file once you find it.

Also, I lied to you about which files to look for

should be

ecco.alm
ecco.cfx
ecco.fdb

They are on your computer somewhere. Make sure your windows settings 
don't hide system files.

I can't seem to access the files anymore although I appear to be 
subscribed to the list still. Maybe I logged in with the wrong address. 
Anyway, I copied this from the "About" page:
