If this program isn't completely compatible with Vista, those files you are
looking for may have been Virtualized.

Look in the Virtual Store folder at C:\Users\your
username\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files for the programs folder.

Also, when you click on a programs folder in C:\Program Files, look on the
Command Bar and if you see a "Compatibility Files" button, this means that
some files for that program have been virtualized. You can click the
Compatibility Files button and it will take you directly to the folder for
the virtualized files are located.
