Where are the LCD_635.INI and CC2_SERVICE.INI files?

[Mike Eckman]

I recently purchased a CFA-635 with the SCAB module for my home server. The server is running Windows Home Server 2011 (basically the same thing as Windows Server 2008). I had no problems with the installation and driver installation. I had no problems installing CrystalControl2, and even setup my first 4 screens showing some stats of the server.

Now I want to tackle getting the status LEDs and buttons to work. I found the following two threads on this site:

https://forum.crystalfontz.com/showthread.php?4321-Progamming-the-CFA-631-633-635-Buttons&s=

https://forum.crystalfontz.com/showthread.php?4322-Progamming-the-CFA-635-LEDs&s=

Both of those threads mention modifying files called lcd_635.ini and cc2_service.ini which are supposedly located in the installation folder where CrystalControl2 is located. I have the program installed to D:\Program Files (x86)\CrystalControl2. Inside that folder are no INI files. There are a bunch of DLLs and a few applications, and 3 folders. The 3 folders are named documentation, extras, and screens. But no INI files.

Please tell me I am missing something incredibly simple here. I have searched these forums and havent seen anyone mention not being able to find any of the INI files.

Otherwise everything works great!

Solved my own question

I swear I spent hours looking for this last night, and 5 minutes after posting this thread, I found them. For anyone else who has this question, they are located in:

C:\ProgamData\CrystamControl2

Apparently under newer versions of Windows, these files are located in this folder regardless of where you actually installed the program!

Correct
This applies to Windows Vista and Windows 7.
Its a Microsoft security measure.
