There is no file.  I have "show hidden files" enabled but nothing is
there.  Additionally, when windows search finds it and I right click it and
select properties it shows its location as the vcc directory, but if I
click on any other of the property tabs windows says the file doesn't
exist.  I am just about to install Vcc on my desktop to see if the behavior
is consistent.
