Try here:

You may need to enter the orbital elements manually, though...

I'm really not sure what the problem is that you have run into, can you open the ssystem folder? if so does it open in notepad?

Hi

Its in my extended ssystem.ini
Available on my web site
Search for it as 10P/tempel

I have attached it here. Rename it to ssystem.ini and place it in documents and setting\[yourfolder]\application data\stellarium\data

Thanks:D
