What I meant by index.html file being empty is that the 'Main Page' tab is empty.
The 'Files' tab does list all my 11 .CPP & 13 .H files and the 'Classes' tab seems
to list all classes.

Is it possible that Doxygen has a problem with finding \ connecting with GraphViz?

I don't use the wizard myself, just edit the configuration file. And there should be a setting in the configuration file for the path to the graphviz executable.

I do know that neither doxygen nor graphviz requires administrative rights to install or run... but I'm not surprised they don't show up on the start menu, they are command-line applications.

Not so much to manage documentation, as to analyze your program structure
and generate documentation, including comments placed in the code to give
you a high level of control over the result.

Look at the CALL_GRAPH and CALLER_GRAPH options, or \callgraph and
\callergraph comments.
