Why doesn't DIR show C:\Users\Yours Truly\AppData?
It's marked as hidden. You can view it if you do dir /ah "C:\Users\Yours Truly"
... or dir /ad "C:\Users\Yours Truly"
. (ah = all hidden files, ad = all directories including hidden)
Another quick shortcut to get there is: use
CD %appdata%\..
%appdata%
is an environment variable that defaults to your current appdata folder. In Windows, this can be roaming, local, or localnew. Almost everything uses C:\Users\Yours Truly\AppData\Roaming
... so in most cases it's probably better just to use the %appdata%
variable instead of the parent directory of %appdata%
