Do I have to have a step for each layer the user has to click
on? (Click on the HKEY_CURRENT_USER folder to open it. Click on
the Software folder to open it... etc.) Or would it be
reasonable to say something like "Locate the
path\path\path\...\DBSetup folder"?

It depends on your audience. I would know what you mean, but some of my
co-workers would not. It sounds like it's a similar setup to Windows
Explorer?
Would a screen shot be a possibility? Showing them, would be more
effective than telling them.
