AppData Folder

[Guest]

I need to access the Virtual Store folder. However, I can't see the following
folder at all:
C:\Users\$user$\appdata\Local\VirtualStore
I can only get up to the $user$, even though I have unchecked the show
hidden files and system files option. Help please....

When I type 'appdata' with no quotes into the 'Start Search' box
Explorer opens at C:\Users\<username>\ and from there I can browse and
get access to the VirtualStore directory.

Hello,

I have the same problem. I can´t access the AppData Folder and I can´t find
how to do that. I´ve tried what suggested in this post but I can´t find how.

Another strange issue is that Windows Vista is saving multiple copies of my
files in this "secret" folder and now I have big problem with data loses and
automatic writing What can I do to prevent Vista to save in Virtual Store?

I have saved almost 10 G of data in my new computer but the disk is now more
than 20 G used righ now. Is Vista doing a back up of everything?

Thanks
