    Can't get to AppData folder

    How do I access the appdata folder when it is not my C:\ drive?

    Its a hidden folder by default. You need to enable hidden files and folders. You can navigate to it though by typing in the path or if you are logged in under the user account in question in explorer just click on the navigation bar and type %appdata% its a system variable so it will open it right up.
