Hi George,

If you didn't change the defaults when you installed the upgrade,
there should be a DX4WIN 8.02 folder in your Start | All Programs
menu.  Click on that folder, then click on the "dx4win" icon inside
it.

Each DX4WIN #.## folder has the same "dx4win" icon.  In your Start
menu, showing most recently used programs, it's easy to temporarily
have two "dx4win" icons, one pointing to an old version and one
pointing to a new version.  If you hover the mouse over the icon
without selecting it, you'll see the Location for that icon, which
will help you determine whether you're selecting the correct one.

On my systems, when I see the "dx4win" icon, I right-click on it and
rename it to (for example), "DX4WIN 8.02".
