On Windows, it's more difficult to figure out where the user folder is. For Windows 10, the default user folder for OmegaT is "C:\Users\YOUR NAME\AppData\Roaming\OmegaT"... regardless of where you installed OmegaT, but it's a hidden folder, so you have to know to unhide it first (and copying hidden folders don't always work unless they've been unhidden first).[/quote]
Unless Windows 10 is even more broken than Windows 7, it’s relatively simple actually. Call up the run window (Win + R) and enter [b]%APPDATA%\OmegaT[/b] to access the directory. You won’t need to unhide it. Or, for example, use Double Commander and its menu to access Windows special directories.

If you are smart enough to tweak scripts, then you are smart enough not to ask questions like the one discussed here.
