Interesting, that's the only file that was changed by the first patch, I think. I suspect you did something like move the data folder without changing the location in the game (or maybe vice versa), then installed the patch and it somehow ended up updating the wrong folder.

Since it sounds like you haven't played yet and thus can't lose any saved games etc., just go to the Control Panel -> Software, and deinstall from there. (I'm assuming you're on Windows.) I'm not sure if there's a need to deactivate the eLicense first, but you might want to do that just to be safe. The option for that should be in the SI->OOTP2007 folder in your Start menu. Do make sure you have your order ID handy to re-license after you've reinstalled the game.

No, that's not a problem then. I don't think you necessarily need to put it there though; the game will prompt you to select the Lahman folder when you set up a league.
