Restart your computer and files should appear.
One possible source of confusion is due to the fact that amateur.txt
is not the only possible source of keplerian elements. If you call up
the window that appears with the 'Satelites' menu, on the far left you
will see a list of files in the SatPC32/Kepler directory. Clicking on
any one of these will generate a list of satellites whose orbits are
defined in that file, and from there you can select a subgroup to be
displayed in the main program. As a result, if you edit the
'amateur.txt' file, be sure that this is the file you have selected
under the 'Satellites' window as well. Also note that when you update
the keps from the web, you'll clobber the file that you edited by
hand.
