Which configuration folder is being used - how do I tell?

Hi there,
I noticed today that the configuration folders under my dreamweaver mx 2004
folder collective contain about 200mb of files. This seems like a lot.
There are four folders.
I think only one is actually used - right ? I am not working in a multiuser
environment... it is only me that uses and logs onto the Win XP computer.

So, how do I determine which of these folders DW is actually actively using?
I would like to delete the other ones to recover the space.

I tried to compare the contents of them but actually they all look
identical. Same dates, folders, files.

Is there an easy way to figure out which folder it is using to store my
active config data?

Thanks,

Jonathan

the one that is used is the one named exactly
Configuration
The other ones with numbers appended at the end are older ones, from
reinstalls.

If on a multi-user os like XP, win2000, osX-
There is a Configuration folder for the application itself, and one for each
user who has used dreamweaver; in their Users folder. (Documents and
Settings on windows i think?) Don't trash those- they aren't duplicates.
Only get rid of the ones with numbers appended to the folder name.
