UserData folder removed??

Hi,

under Vista the path was(hidden folder):

C:\Users\[User Name]\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\UserData

It seems that this folder is removed under Windows 7 !! Can anybody confirm it or tell me where is this folder located?


Thanks in advance.

Hi 2bn2b, welcome to the forums.

I've just had a look for you and the UserData folder is there on my rig under the same folder structure as you mentioned above.

Have you un-checked 'Hide protected operating system files (Recommended)' in Folder Options?

My Vista ones hidden too until I un-check that setting.

(Most people leave it checked, mainly for safety and also because it shows 2 .ini files on the desktop when unchecked)
