As said in the blog, Sweet Home 3D is able to compute the hole at the intersection between a windows and a round wall, but you'll have to place windows at the right location and angle yourself. To get best results you should probably create holes first with invisible boxes (don't forget to select Door or window while importing it).
This may be improved in a future version, but try it yourself and you'll understand that automatic computing may get sometimes too complicated.

Some configuration files are copied every time you launch Sweet Home 3D. They can be found in [font=courier new]C:\Users\user\AppData\Roaming\eTeks\Sweet Home 3D\work[/font] directory. These files are deleted when they are 1 week old and not before by security (auto deletion is always something quite dangerous to handle), but you can delete them if you want to, once you quitted Sweet Home 3D.
I would prefer these temporary files being deleted automatically at program end, but a bug in Java under Windows prevents it.

The space occupied by Sweet Home 3D is:
- the program probably in [font=courier new]C:\Program Files\Sweet Home 3D[/font] folder
- the content of [font=courier new]C:\Users\user\AppData\Roaming\eTeks\Sweet Home 3D[/font] folder
- the SH3D files you created.
After that, I can't give you tips about some other things...
