I was messing around with the recent CE upgrade and discovered that if I invoked the "Charts Here" feature in Planning Mode that the chart list did not contain any Chartworld charts even though the property panel indicated that the chart display was Chartworld chart I5Q_XIX. Since I just wanted to display USWA45M I didn't know what to do. However, entering the chart folder, finding the Chartworld chart list allowed me to remove the I5Q_XIX folder to another location. Now CE displayed the NOAA chart I wanted all along. I also discovered that much of the area in the San Juan Islands was also covered by various Chartworld charts and the only way to get the program to display the NOAA charts was to systematically remove the Chartworld charts, a rather tedious process.
Would be nice if the "Charts Here" feature would list the Chartworld charts so they could be removed easily. By the way, my Chartworld coverage is for the west coast of Canada but unfortunately overlaps into parts of the US. It's the overlap portion that I'm trying to remove.
I did download the Seattle CMAP demo and will probably download the CMAP charts of BC soon. I think some of the added features will be useful but only time will tell.

The "Charts Here" menu should list the entire ChartWorld Navionics S-57 region as a single chart which can be enabled or disabled all at once. Is that not appearing?
No Brad, the ChartWorld charts are not listed in the Charts Here panel. The properties panel does display the correct info i.e. ChartWorld data when ChartWorld chart is displayed. Charts Here list would show only the NOAA ENCs (vector only list).
FYI: Using version 3.0.12025.2143, W7, BootCamp. Charts are in C:\Charts and ChartWorld charts are in C:\Charts\ChartWorld Upgrade\1I\"individual charts".

For what ever reason, CE would not display ChartWorld charts in the "Charts Here" panel if "The Chart Identifier was missing" ie 1I07006_DATA_9_0_0 then one level down the folder ENC_ROOT, down another level to folder 1I which contains all the individual chart folders. I had removed the chart identifier and ENC_ROOT folders as they seemed unnecessary. Opps!
"Charts Here" now displays the ChartWorld identifier and the properties panel shows the name of the individual chart on display.
