    Go to C:\Program Files, and click on Compatibility Files in the Toolbar of

    Windows Explorer. This will take you to C:\Users\(Your

    Name)\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files. This is where UAC puts the

    files of programs that write certain types of user files to the C:\Program

    Files subdirectories.
