I have had very little problem with finding needed folders for plugin and such in Windows until now....Win 7 64 Ultimate.
I need to find my AppData/Roaming/Adobe/Lightroom folder(s) ....normally I would go to C drive - Users -Art Scott Fotografie - AppData - Roaming and so on.......However the AppData folder seems to missing and if I use the search function it points me to a HSW_log....I am at a loss

Any help appreciated......If there is an easier way to install custom presets (.lrtemplate) that would be great also.

Thanx in Advance.

EDIT: computer: Dell Studio 17 - OS Win 7 Ultimate 64 ...did not know if this would help

Windows 7 by default does not show hidden and system folders. You need to change your view options to show hidden and system folders. There is a quick tutorial on the process at http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial151.html or http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Show-hidden-files

Go to the LR Develop module. over on the left, right click on the presets and select : Install presets. Select the folder you saved them to. That oughtta work Art~
