As for the reading, that I did do. I read the .htm file included a few times before beginning - even walking through the steps, finding the files, but not uploading or selecting anything.

I used the Fresh Install without Chat Imports.
> Uploaded FILES to my forum root. < folder by folder in fact>
> Uploaded IMAGES to my STYLES area. < again, folder by folder>
> Imported via AdminCP the .xml file from PRODUCT. <*>
> Used the Download/Upload section of Language Manager w/ Specified Options <*>

Note on "*": I did NOT upload these files to my Web Server, but instead uploaded from my Local PC. I did not see any instruction to upload them anywhere, so I did not...could this be the issue?

Not sure what else I could have missed as the instructions seem pretty straight forward. The Chatbox is functioning fine on the site and was fully customizable - and no database errors are being generated and sent to my Admin email. Just the AdminCP side bar is STILL in French (not the sections AFTER clicking - they are English) and the Help button generate the above posted error.

Importing doesn't require uploading, so no, that's not your issue. But it does look like you skipped a few steps. Your error probably stems from trying to upload the files folder by folder. That's never necessary. The files are all included in the same file tree structure as they would appear in your forum. You only need to grab all the contents and drop them into your root directory, overwriting all the necessary folders in one swoop. Trying to do it one at a time means you could overlook something or put a file in the wrong place too easily. Not to mention it takes nearly 20 times as long.
