First you need to setup your system to see hidden files and folders:

Click on the Start Menu

Select Control Panel

Double-click on the Folder options

Select the View tab

Next browse to the data you wish to backup:

Go to start -> computer

Double-click on C:

Double-click on the users folder

Double-click on a folder that has your Windows username

Double-click on the AppData folder

Double-click on the Local folder

Double-click on the Activision folder

Dom Estos from what im seeing your pc is still not showing you the hidden files/folders in your app data folder it should be there somewhere

 

I'm showing everything inc hidden system files! I've searched for the files and they are not there. there is no players folder anywhere in the pogram files. :(

 

Guess I'll have to start again if I can be bothered :unsure:
