Hello Baumbach,

These are located normally in the following location:

C:\Users\[User.Name]\AppData\Roaming\NaturalPoint\TrackIR 5\Profiles

Hi,

The 'App Data' folder is a Hidden Folder and is in the User Folder of your C Drive ( For me its the folder with the top half of a person)

To view hidden files, go to control panel, Appearance & Personalization, File Explorer Options, go to the View Tab, look down to the Advanced Section/Window... scroll down to 'Show Hidden bla bla' and check box.

Thank you for stepping in, Carter.

Another way to get to the hidden folder option in Windows 10 is in the File Explorer itself. Just select the View Tab at the top of the window, and this will expose the option to select Hidden items.
