find the location of the program database file

I'm having the same problem. I tried the approach of a file 'save data' and appearing in the file of users/app data.

There are 2 problems with this: 1) application data file does not appear in the Explorer for me to access, even if I know it is exisits and 2) I'm trying to transfer a backup file, and the program is very specifically looking for a c:\programdata\... etc.

Where can I find the program data file?

Thank you

Joan

Hi Joan,

Application data are not a real record, it is a crossroads which is only there for backward compatibility. A crossroads is a shortcut that redirects the programs and files to another location, and for the most part hidden.

This particular junction points to the C:Users\username\AppData\Roaming folder.

Also the steps suggested by Dave 9 from this link.

    First go to your message control and look for FIrefox in your installed programs, you can see?

    If not:

    If so, when you add an exception you will:

    • C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
    • C:\Program Files (x 86) \Mozilla Firefox

    Maybe you are already adding an exception, you tried to start Firefox? Have you seen a message from windows?

    I did the windows repair option by restarting then pressed f8 to get to come repair options. I did it to try to remove a number of problems of virus on my laptop.

  • Where can I find the program files on the start menu?

    Where can I find the program files that appeared when I clicked on the Start button in older versions of Windows?

    I would definitely recommend getting the update: it solves a lot of problems and significantly accelerates things.  But if you haven't yet done so, the option "All Apps" is nestled in a toolbar.  You can right click on an empty area of your home page to display the toolbar.

  • where can I find the niscope_32.dll file?

    Hello:

    the problem is like this: I used the function scope in my program, and then I did it in an executable file. but when I copy it to another computer and run the executable file, it will load the file niscope_32.dll

    but where can I find the niscope_32.dll file?

    You should not just copy the exe to a new pc. You create an installer that not only has the runtime, but the driver NOR-Scope.

  • I can't find the fix_svchost.bat file update. The svchost.exe process is spiking the CPU at 100% after the computer crashes.

    Original title: I can't find the fix_svchost.bat file update.

    I'm in you process of having my computer running faster. The svchost.exe process takes 100% of cpu memory and computer dthe freezes. A friend of mine told me a method to solve the problem, but I can't find the fix_svchost.bat update. I went to microsoft update center and don't find any results at all, and I don't know another place to look for. I think that the update does not even exist.

    I could send you a fix_svchost.bat file, but I don't think it's the starting point.

    What you need to do is run a few respectable scans for malware first, and then see if any of you are your svchost.exe process is still badly behave.

    Behind each of the svchost.exe process that see you in the Manager of tasks can be one or more process of XP you have to be running, but malware is KNOWN to imitate or hide behind a svchost.exe process, so you won't be able to see in Manager tasks.  You have to outsmart it.

    First yo should make a reasonable effort to eliminate malware, and then start troubleshooting - not the other way around.

    Provide information on your system, the better you can:

    What is your system brand and model?

    What is your Version of XP and the Service Pack?

    Describe your current antivirus and software anti malware situation: McAfee, Symantec, Norton, Spybot, AVG, Avira!, MSE, Panda, Trend Micro, CA, Defender, ZoneAlarm, PC Tools, Comodo, etc..

    No matter what you use for malware protection, follow these steps:

    Download, install, update and do a full scan with these free malware detection programs at:
    Malwarebytes (MMFA): http://malwarebytes.org/
    SUPERAntiSpyware: (SAS): http://www.superantispyware.com/

    These comprehensive analyses can take some time, but you really need to run.  SAS will probably be just a bunch of Internet tracking cookies, but you can remove them.  Once you have done at least a full analysis, you can do quick scans in the future to save time and save the analyses complete for when you have more time or are really suspicious of an infection of the system.

    They can be uninstalled later if you wish.

    In 1985, there were 11 known computer viruses.  Today, there are over 70,000 and new threats are detected every day.  Always update your virus definitions before running a scan.

  • The desktop icon can not find the program

    I'm having a problem where when I click on my desktop icons they can not find the program that is associated with run.

    Most of them is related to sites Web that I often use, so I select Internet Explorer as the associated program then remember this radio button, but when I connect and get back in that I get the same error.

    I am running windows XP, I say this because I've posted this before, and I referred to a difficulty which will not work with this operating system.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Hello

    1. what kind of file is it?

    If you know the location of the file, I recommend you start in safe mode and then remove the file and check. If you are able to delete the file, then start in normal mode and try to uninstall the program.

  • Cannot find the locale data files. Please reinstall

    I had a problem with Google Chrome, so I uninstalled via the control panel. I then reinstalled and I have this problem. I always present in my programs in the watched folder, but when I select to demolished, he said ' wait until the current program has finished install or changing.» I have no other program install or change. If I try to open Google, anywhere Progams, taskbar, all programs or directly from the .exe LocalApps it gives me the "could not find the locale data files. Please reinstall.

    I found the answer to my question. It seems that you can build processes, I don't understand why. For example I had a problem with my windows Explorer crashing. I disabled all the startup process of msconfig.

    In my view, there must be something in there that closes a completed process.
    Then I had, unknown to me, when I posted this problem, six or seven cases Google chrome showing the the Task Manager process tab. When I quit all instances of Google, I was able to finish the removal process and re - install Google Chrome.
    I just checked right now and I have six Google shown 3 rundll32.exe and two taskeng.exe bodies. I've never seen no more than one instance of anything in this tab before today.
    Disabling all startup stuff does not solve my problem to explore some way so I'll allow them once again.
    Thank you for helping me and I hope that someone can get useful information from my travels.

  • Just ending 30 days free trial. Downloaded the lower version (paid), but can not find the program on the system

    Hello

    I just finished the free 30 day trial of Adobe Acrobat.  I went and downloaded a paid version of the software (but with less features).  I had to remove the upgraded to this version.  I have paid but now cannot find the program on my laptop (which is Windows 10).  It was about 30 minutes ago.  Anyone know what happened?

    Thank you

    Hello

    Please check with the name of the file.

    However, you only have to download an earlier version.

    Adobe does not sell any of the previous plus versions.

    You can only use the trial for the previous version.

    You will need to go to Acrobat DC.

    You can search by the path of the product or search in downloads.
