I did what you suggested @Matt I now have the HX711 directory in both the Arduino program files and the user directories and it still complains about it. The only way I can get it to compile is to place the hx711.h & hx711.cpp files into the sketch directory and change the line to #include "HX711.h"

Installing libraries to the IDE installation folder(C:\Program Files\Arduino\Libraries in your example) is a bad idea because all the libraries you install there will be lost when you update to a new IDE version. Always install the libraries to the {sketchbook}/libraries folder.
