Hello Gani,

Thanks for your post.

Generally speaking, the location of Isolated Storage is transparent to the
application and the size of this area can be restricted (10MB by default in
the Internet permission set). When using isolated storage, applications
save data to a unique data compartment that is associated with some aspect
of the code's identity, such as its Web site, publisher, or signature. The
data compartment is an abstraction, not a specific storage location; it
consists of one or more isolated storage files, called stores, which
contain the actual directory locations where data is stored.

The isolated storage files are actually stored in the Application Data
directory of the user in gernerally, the following MSDN article lists the
root locations where isolated storage is created on a few common operating
systems. In your program, you can check the version of operating system and
then you are able to know the root locations of isolated storage.
