Try to find Application Data folder in the C:\Users folder, it might happen that AppData is not visible to you ?
I don’t know, but i tried this thing and it don’t work.
A perfect solution. However for Windows 7 & Vista users, firstly you must type “FOLDER OPTIONS” into your start bar, and in folder options click the radio button labelled “SHOW HIDDEN FILES&FOLDERS”. Hit apply. Then type AppData, and enter the roaming folder, there you will see it.
Edit: – The app data folder is found under EXAMPLE:
C:\Users\Iain\AppData\Roaming\SecondLife
Where “Iain” is the username you are currently logged into.
