Userdata not showing in Wesnoth 1.4.7
Having just upgraded from 1.4.2, I was astounded to find that the userdata folder does not display in the main directory. It only appears if I look in the map editor. I even have hidden folder tracking on and it does not appear. It's a shame because I cant view the addons I collected. What do I do here?

How did you "upgrade"?
Which system are you using?
It's easier to help, if you give plenty of info.

Re: Userdata not showing in Wesnoth 1.4.7
I'm using 64-bit vista. I downloaded the windows version of 1.4.7 and installed it.
Out of curiousity, I tried installing it to my normal program files and then it appeared, but all the addons like extended era and stuff don't show.

I don't know about 64-bit Vista support of the Windows binary, but the behaviour of the appearing folder seems to point to some writing rights permission problem, maybe.

In 32-bit Vista, the userdata folder only appears if you click "Show compatibility files" on the toolbar. Maybe you could navigate to the folder and see if there is such a button.

After installing a new version of Wesnoth, it will not appear until you do something like change the preferences, download an add-on, or play a game.
