I don't recommend this method, but in any case, your statement seems
wrong. If you install J in c:\j601, and then copy it to another
directory and run J from this second directory, the startup file it
looks for will be in the second directory. J has no way of knowing that
if the startup file is not in the second directory, it should go back
and look for it in the first.

Most likely you copied the startup file from the first directory to the
second. If not, then perhaps you are using a custom profile file that
explicitly refers to c:\j601.
