Locating normal.dot

M

MV Rao

I am using Windows XP and Windows 2000. I am unable to locate normal.dot.
When I use Search, it shows the path to be
c:\Documents and Settings\45\Application Data\Microsoft\Templates
However when I use Explorer, I am unable to see the sub-directory
Application Data under 45!
