I am looking for an application's data file. "Search" indicates it's in
C:/Users/Me/Appdata/Roaming/etc/etc. When I navigate from "Computer" in
Home Premium all I see is C:/Users/Me/Documents (Pictures, Music, etc). Is
there still a Windows Explorer in Vista?
Thanks for your help, I couldn't find an answer after reviewing all previous
posts.

Turn on Show Hidden Files > then open your User folder.

It is a hidden file so you will need to enable the 'show hidden files and
folders' in the folder options properties. Once you have done that go to the
user folder and you should find it there.
