Hello, I have a windows 11 system using the arduino IDE version 2.2.1. I tried to look for the arduino folder in the Program files and in the program files X86 folder and can not see the arduino folder in them fodlers like the older versions. Can someone please tell me where the folder is located at?

Hi @josephchrzempiec. Check if the folder is at this location:
C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Programs\Arduino IDE
(where <username> is your Windows username)
If looking for it with your file manager or command line, note that the AppData folder is hidden by default. On Windows "File Explorer", you can make it visible by opening the "View" menu, then checking the box next to "☐ Hidden items".
Thank you ptilliosch.
Edit: Opps I forgot one last thing. Where are all the Default libraries at? I know where they are in the old ide but the newer one I have no clue.
You are welcome. I'm glad if I was able to be of assistance.
This is the location where the IDE is installed if you use the Windows installer and select "Only for me (<username>)" in the dialog (which is the default). It is installed at C:\Program Files\Arduino IDE if you instead select "Anyone who uses this computer (all users)" in the dialog.
Got you. ptillisch I forgot one last thing. Where are all the Default libraries at? I know where they are in the old ide but the newer one I have no clue.
Arduino IDE 2.x installs them here on the first run after a fresh installation:
C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Arduino15\libraries
Once again ptillisch thank you very much.
