Compatibility files are stored in the virtual store under the user's profile; username/appdata/local/virtualstore.You must have "show hidden files and folders" checked under file and folder options. If your running with the user account control on compatibility files will be in the virtualstore,if your running with it off there will be no compatibility files because they will be in c:/porgram files(x86) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What i wanted to do was down all the maps with the downloader, then make a back up of every currrent map, then if i reinstall W7, it's a piece of piss to reinstal them in the proper folder. can somebody give me the paths for the maps folder/s in cod4 and cod/w@w? UAC is off btw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If your running any of the games as admin they will be in virtual store. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
