Here you will find a file called "Company" it has no file extension so has no icon associated with it and looks "strange"

Double click it - You will be asked what application you want to use to open the file, (the exact dialogue varies from operating system to operating system - but you should be able to work it out) choose NOTEPAD do not choose anything else.

When the file opens you will find it contains one or more lines of text giving the path(s) to your dataset(s)

You have successfully located the path to your dataset.
