    In Window's XP, there is a history folder that records all activities of the
    PC, it is at c:\user\local \local settings\history. Does anyone know where to
    find this folder in Vista?

    With IE 7.0 opened go up to Tools.
    To Internet Options.
    Click the Settings button under Browsing History.
    Under Current Folder it shows you where they are.

    Click Start and type shell:history In the results click the History
    folder.
    The actual path to this folder is:
    C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\History

    AppData is a hidden folder, so you will need to make sure that folders are
    not hidden. To do this, open Windows Explorer and click Organize/Folder and
    Search Options. Click the View Tab and select the 'Show hidden files and
    folders' option.

    FOUND MY RECENT ACTIVITIES OF MY PC ON WINDOWS VISTA [​IMG]

    Hope it HELPS!...

    Go to---->

    c:\Users\user_name\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Recent


    For AppData Folder you should have your hidden folders check box on...
    for that go to Windows Explorer(Computer)----> Organize---->Folders and
    Search Options---->View----> then make sure that the Show hidden Files
    and Folders is active so you can see all the hidden folders.

    Then you´ll be able to see the AppData folder...
