vintyri Collection
If you followed my instructions above for finding the path, all you need to do is to move them so they match that path. I am guessing you just have an extra folder or missing one.
As an alternative, you can also extract the source zip again according to the instructions in the installation guide. Each of the four sets from vintiry comes with a rather detailed one.

Wishlist for CC4
Well, there can never be enough tutorials, but it is described in the Manual, which is a tutorial for the program. I know some people prefer videos instead of written word (that still boggles my mind, really), but videos do take time and effort to make (and are also way more difficult to keep up to date compared to written text). I do make video tutorials, but it is difficult to get to everything.

Shadows not rendering when saving as jpg
The issue that occurs here is that because of memory constraints, CC3+ cannot compute the entire high-resolution map in memory at the same time for the export, which is why it exports in multiple passes, each pass rendering a part of the map.
Unfortunately, effects from entities outside of the current rendering part won't be considered, such as shadows from entities far away. There is a certain overlap to handle the closer but right outside things, but considering effects from everything in the map is impossible due to the aforementioned resource problem.
However, you can change the default size of these render chunks, causing CC3+ to render much more of the map in one go. This is done by typing in EXPORTSETMPPP on the CC3+ command line and hitting enter. The command line will then ask for the number of pixles, type in the value 40000000 (The current value, shown in brackets is probably 4000000, keep your zeroes straight). and hit enter. Depending on your export resolution, you will export the map in much fewer passes, perhaps even just a single pass.
Note that if this isn't enough, the other solution is to either consider using shorter shadows, avoiding the problem, or manually creating them using a partially transparent polygon.

FRIA Install Problem
Well, yes, I downloaded it from the official Wizards website some 20 years ago, that version have always worked fine. Unfortunately, I don't have the rights to redistribute it, so I can't provide you with my copy.
You should be fine with just Patch 3 though. Patch 3 was designed to completely replace the others. I know some discrepancies have been reported up through the years (of which some of these are noting more than old files left behind that were replaced by others, just not deleted when you install the update), but in general, patch 3 is designed to be the complete package, and can be installed without patch 1 & 2 installed.
