By default the preference files are "hidden." You'll need to 'unhide them' (Windows setting).

Here’s the steps for Windows 2000. They will be similar to what you'll need to do for whatever flavor of Windows you're using:
1. From any folder window (Note: It makes no difference which folder is open. \My Documents is as good as any.) choose Tools > Folder Options.
2. Click the tab labeled View.
3. Under Hidden files and folders, click on the Show hidden files and folders option, then click OK.

Use Windows’ Start > Search > For Files or Folders function and specify *.psp as the file name search argument.

Amy...

Bookmark the Adobe Technical Document I linked to above for future reference, even if you don't understand all of it.

When Adobe updates the app, the document will get updated as well.
