Profile Location (Windows) (L4.13 from the book)

In Windows XP and Windows Vista, the Colorsync Profiles folder can be found here: Windows/System32/Spool/Drivers/Color. Alternatively, you can right click in XP or Vista on an output profile and select “Install Profile.” On older Windows operating systems, this is generally the location: Windows\System\Color. Also note that you will need to restart Photoshop if the program is open when you add profiles to your Profiles folder.

This page has some very good information as well on this topic: http://www.drycreekphoto.com/Learn/profile_install.htm
