...but, I also uninstalled my local copy of Silent Hunter 5 before I came to this solution, so... I suppose I'll know tomorrow. Sorry for wasting your time, Grizwald. XD

The SH5 installer is not smart enough to update your computer's registry to the new install path when you reinstall SH5 again to a different folder. You need to run my SHValidator app and point it to the correct SH5 install location and it will update your computer's registry
