I cant seem to find the correct folders to place my CEP files into? all I find is=

Documents(folder)
Tools(folder)
Neverwinter nights (safe Mode)
Neverwinter Nights Diamond Edition
Settings
Unistall Nerverwinter Nights....

The proceeding files and folders are all under-- C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\GOG.com. I can find no other
location for this game.

Where are all the- Mod, Hak, dmvault, etc....... files located? This cannot be installed
without them (at least manually)

This is frustrating....

What OS are you using?

*edit* Hold on: Did you look in the 'Neverwinter Nights Diamond Edition' folder?

Neverwinter Nights 1 data is stored in your installation folder, unless you have installed it to 'Program Files', which you should not. If you have, it will be in a virtual folder that Windows creates, so uninstall and re-install to somewhere like

C:\Games\GOG\Neverwinter Nights Diamond Edition\

That's where your data will be.

Well when I get a chance it seems I will have to reinstall it. All my GOG games are under- Program Files(86)\GOG\...
All except NWN Diamond. The only place I can find it is- C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\GOG.com, as I wrote above, and it is missing all the folders I need. Very strange the way GOG does this. I just went with the default installation, thought it would be fine. Oh well I will try again I guess.

Thanks for the responses.

Oh, and I use windows 7.

It is not GOG that does it, it is Windows that has hidden your data in a virtual folder, because 'Program Files' and 'Program Files(86)' are protected by Windows, which means they cannot be written to by programs/games. The GOG installer offers you a chance to choose a custom installation, which you should ALWAYS do with ALL games -- they should never, ever be put into Program Files.
