They still haven’t done that in 2025, Windows file locations are by far the worst part of it as an operation system for an average user?
Is it in C:/Users/<username>/? How about in the Documents folder? No, AppData/Local maybe? AppData/LocalLow or AppData/Roaming?
Maybe it created a root folder on my hard drive, Intel and NVIDIA love to do that? Did it just dump data in my registry (thanks Adobe)? Maybe it’s in the installation location in Program Files, or with the 32-bit updater app in Program Files (x86)?
Who the fuck even knows anymore at this point, just write directly into System32 for all I care
