location of preferences file in Vista?

#1 08-21-2008, 08:19 PM

According to the Fireworks CS3 help files, I should be able to delete the
fireworks 9 preferences.txt file to return settings to defaults. I have used
advanced search and also manually searched but can find no trace of this file.
I'm logged on as administrator and have hidden files showing. Does anyone have
any ideas?? I've got some weird things going on and I'd like to get back to all
defaults.

Hi Don,

On my machine it's located at

C:\Users\test\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Fireworks CS3\English

THANK YOU!
Silly me assumed that the file was correctly named in the help files,
including the online version. Looking in the folder you suggested, I found that
it is actually named Fireworks CS3 Prefferences.txt. Obviously, I never thought
to look in a directory called English.
