I tried to download a trial copy of Adobe Premier Pro video editing software.
The file seemed to download, but Vista will not let me look at it. Adobe
suggested I follow this path to the file;

C:\users\Gerry\appdata\local\microsoft\windows\temporary internet
files\virtualized folder

The problem is I cannot get any farther than ...\microsoft\windows...

There does not seem to be a temporary internet or virtualized folder folder.

What am I to do?
 
Hi Ger,
yes this is a security feature in windows vista ,as when u download the file
the file is routed to the virtualised folder which is a hidden folder As this
is an adobe product plz refer the Article number :Unable to find or start the
installer after you download a product from the Adobe Store (Windows
Vista):kb402738

Step to get the virtual folder :
Go to Control Panel /folder options(Classic View)
Under Folder Option Check- Show Hidden Files and Folders
Uncheck -Hide Extension for Know File Types
Click Run -Copy this path :%LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary
Internet Files\Virtualized
Click ok
This will open the Virtual Folder - Within this click the Folder named
C:/select the folder name Users:/
Within this folder u will see a folder with the username : (Within 1 of
these folders u will have the file )
Note :In vista if You tried to save the file to the Desktop ,Vista will
create a new Folder named Desktop under the Vitrualised Folder

So ger best of luck and let me know if this resolves ur prob
