If anyone else ever runs into this, I did find a not very elegant solution. I installed VS10+ on another computer...it took Smartsound fine...then I deleted the smartsound directory structure on the problem install, copied and pasted in the smartsound directory structure from the other computer successful install into the deleted space. That got the files over. The problem install Library was only 75 MEG, the succesful files brought that up to around 345 MEG

This highlights the important advice given in the Online Documentation
for SmartSound® Sonicfire® Pro
Backing up Your Files
Every computer user knows that backup is extremely important to protect data in case of a problem
with your computer. However, many people do not back up as often as they should. With the advent
of our downloadable singles option, it is extremely important that you maintain regular backups of
your Sonicfire Pro work.
For PC users, make sure to include the Common Files folder where your sound files are resident.
This path is most likely \Documents and Settings\All Users.WINDOWS\Application Data\SmartSound
Software Inc.\Sound Files on your operating system drive.
