I cant even find the folder because it wont let me. This is what comes up
"Windows cannot find 'C:\Windows\Performance\WinSat\DataScore'. Make sure you
typed the name correctly, and then try again." This is very annoying because
all i want to do is rate my system. I think the rest of the last post will
work fine, but first i have to find the folder in which all of the xml files
are contained. Thanks again guys.

C:\Windows\Performance\WinSat\DataStore

Ok it gives me the same answer even though I changed the Score to Store. This
is what is give me. "Windows cannot find
'C:\Windows\Performance\WinSat\DataStore'. Make sure you
typed the name correctly, and then try again."
