Workstation 6 - Importer: How come some programs are now missing from my imported VM?

I ran the import wizard on a physical machine. It's a windows XP box with two hard drives.

The import appeard to work ok. I powered off the physical machine and fired up the VM but when I went to run one of the programs that was present on the physical machine by opening a file that the program is registered with, windows installer fired up, showed me a progress bar, then dissappeared.

I looked in the program files directory and the two directories that this program is installed to on the physical machine are missing.

Can anyone explain to me why this happened?
