@Phil, the first thing you should do is throw that crap AVG down. This is snake oil! Windows Defender has been working excellently since Win 8.1 at the latest, you don't need another one.
Installed programs store certain data in "C:\user\Name" so that you can work as a user - without admin status. As a user, you don't put anything down, that's taboo.
A program is installed under "C:\Program Files" or "C:\Programme" (German), some programs need this, such as Strawberry Perl.
Then you create a working directory in which you create a folder for QB64, something like this: "C:\lab\QB64\Exercises" (I have all working directories under "lab". "Lab" is the abbreviation for "Laborare!". Work!)
In "Exercises" you write your programs and save them there. Now one only have to activate it in QB64 under "Run -> Output EXE to Source Folder".
That's not a good idea! Now anyone, including malware, can access this folder without admin rights. Quite dangerous!

Quote:@SMcNeill - Go to your folder under C:\Program Files (x86).
And so forth.
