Curtis,
You can also enter the run dialog from the Start Menu, type "%appdata%"
and press Enter to open the application data folder.
Best regards,
Steve

Hi,
Go to the desktop. Just above computer should be an icon with the
name of the administrator account on the machine. In my case it's
owner, but hers may be something else depending on what name was set
up when configuring the machine.
Anyway, click on that to get to the list of folders. The first one
should be appdata. If it's not there, you may need to bring up the
tools menu, folder options, and under view turn on show hidden files
and folders. I can't remember but think you need to do this.
Next open appdata and next open roaming. Finally look for the entry
gwmicro. Go down through the sub folders through window-eyes, users,
default, and eventually you'll get to a list of files. The .ini file
should be in there somewhere.
It's a different file structure from xp for sure, and that's one
reason why many older programs have trouble working under vista since
they're not aware of the new file structure.
Hope this helps,
Don

Hi all. I've a good friend who almost ran into this situation,
and needed, potentially, to go to her docs and settings
directory, application settings, and to gw-micro etc. to delete
the virtualview.ini file since the update required it. Now, in
Vista, how does one find that file? Her Del has what they call
"OS c:\" under computer, but there is just all users (OS
something like that) under documents and settings. Why is it all
seem to be invisible?
