| | AppData folder Hello group, I have a cookie cleaner utility that points to C:\Users\Owner\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Cookies. But it doesn't seem to work, and I can't locate the AppData folder, or anything subsequent to that. What am I missing. Where's AppData? Thanx |

It's a Hidden folder in your "Owner" folder, or whatever your account name happens to be. mine is at c:\users\andy\appdata In your case you can open the folder by going to Run... and typing in c:\users\owner\appdata |
