    Hidden folders

    I installed `Kane and Lynch` on my PC twice in Program Files(x86) folder but I can`t find them (2 folders with game). But free space on my HDD is lower. So there`re those folders on my hdd. I use option `unhide` hidden folders but still can`t find them. Any suggestions? How can i delete those hidden folders?

    When I run istallation for this game I can see those folders in Program Files(x86) folde.

    I`m using Win 7 Ultimate 64 bit.

  3. Windows 10. Where is program data folder?

    Hi Carl,

    Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft Community.

    I understand your inconvenience. We are here to assist you.

    The program date folder contains application data for all users. The program date folder is hidden folder in Windows by default. As you are unable to find the program date folder, I suggest you to follow the instructions provided below.

    • Open File Explorer.
    • Go to the C drive.
    • Click on view.
    • Check on the box Hidden items.
    • If you are still unable to see the program date folder then click on Options next to hidden items.
    • Go to view tab.
    • Under hidden files and folder, select show hidden files, folders and drives.
    • Click on Apply and OK button.
    • Now, again go to C diver the program date folder shall be available.


    Hope it helps. Do let us know if your issue is resolved. For any further query, feel free to contact us.

    Thank you.
