For some particular reason, or just on principle?

Well, according to 'help startup', you should have put it into 
%USERPROFILE%, i.e. "c:\Documents and Settings\[your User name]\".  But 
the documentation appears to be dragging a little behind things.  It's 
actually in %APPDATA%.  I just tried that with 4.2.3, and it worked.

Oh, and since you appear to be hailing from Germany, please note that 
the name of %APPDATA% would be "c:\Dokumente und Einstellungen\[your 
User name]\Anwendungsdaten" here.
