     1. C:\Documents and Settings\USER\ProgramData\CYPE Ingenieros\v20xx\config
     2. C:\Documents and Settings\USER\ProgramData\CYPE Ingenieros\v20xx\CYPECAD
     3. C:\Documents and Settings\USER\ProgramData\CYPE Ingenieros\v20xx\reticula

• For Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 8.1 and Windows 10:
  1. Access the C:\Users\USER folder
  2. Click on the ORGANISE section in the top toolbar and then click on FOLDER & SEARCH OPTIONS.
  3. Click on the VIEW tab and select the “Show all hidden files and folders” option.
