Where are my savegames?
C:\Documents and Settings\**USERNAME**\My Documents\My Games\Oblivion\Saves
Where can I find a list of active plugins?*
C:\Documents and Settings\**USERNAME**\Local Settings\Application Data\Oblivion\Plugins.txt
Someone told me to change a value in oblivion.ini. Where is that?
C:\Documents and Settings\**USERNAME**\My Documents\My Games\Oblivion
I'm trying to make a mod, but I can't seem to find the files I need.
To access the original files, you'll need to unpack them first. Use this utility to do so.

*If you substitute your username, you can open this in your web browser, which is probably quicker.

This may belong in Modifications, but it seems more of a General thing.
If I've missed something, please let me know.

Yay! Now they work on all windows systems (that I know of, at least) :D
Ye' know, some people keep their system stuff on other partitions than C:

If you have reasigned your Windows documents folder then it will bypass the C:\Documents and Settings\**USERNAME**\ address and send those files to the new "My Documents" folder.

Ex: I reasigned My Documents folder (which default address is the above mentioned) to E:\Mis Documentos so now I have to search for those files at E:\Mis Documentos\My Games\Oblivion\

Note: The plugins.txt may not be created or at least I can't find it on my system... maybe because I didn't used the Oblivion launcher to activate the mods.

This may be a bit off topic but for the Oblivion_default.ini file on my vista laptop when installing OBMM it has an error and says "no file found, if you changed or removed..." What should I do?. The mod Deadly Reflex requires OBMM and it is the onluy mod i want... What do I do? :thanks: AusDaBoss

The file paths are different on Vista and Windows 7. This only applies to XP.
