You should really create a special folder/location for the Access front-end and then update it through a login or admin script. The user should not have a choice as to where to save the front-end file.

Also, if you have only Windows NT/2000/XP systems, then you can connect remotely to the administrative drive shares C$, D$,... and remotely search the HDs for the obsolete files.
