We have an windows application that uses C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data for storing some application specific settings in Windows XP.

Recently we want to try Windows 7, so installed Windows Seven RC build on a laptop machine. At one point we want to edit some settings and we were looking for the Document and Settings folder, voila - Its not there. As usual they changed again in the new OS.

After scratching head for quite sometime and playing with the Folder options at last figured it out. It's been renamed to ProgramData and it is located on the root folder i.e C:\ProgramData.

If you are not able to see it, goto folder properties or options and enable to show hidden files and folders.
