Editing to make my question clearer and hoping to get an answer...

Hi,
I've installed Civ 4 a few days ago.
I've discovered that the game,when installing, creates 2 different directories. The first one (c:/program files/ fireaxis/...) and a second one (desk/my docs/my games/Sid meier's civ/...)
The two directories are not quite identical, but all files from the second are already in the first.
I find it stupid to have the files twice (taking space on my not-so-big hard-drive). So is it safe to delete the "my games" dir?

Another problem posed by that is that I want to correct the mistranslations. As the XML files appear in both directories, I hope it can do to correct just the one in the fireaxis dir...
thanks for your answer.
 
Check the Firaxis Games folder, the folders beginning with _ such as:

_civ4customassets

Are all just shortcuts to the /My Games folder. The content is not repeated twice.
 
Oh. I did check that but only one random folder. And it wasn't a shortcut. I guess it was too much up the tree and was the only original dir.
Thanks.
