Slic3r settings location

When I start Slic3r, I get a message:
Cannot create configuration directories: boost::filesystem::create_directory: The system cannot find the path specified:
"C:\Users\Public\Documents\Prusa3D\Slic3r settings MK3 216"

Does anyone know where the configuration file is located so I can edit it manually? There is no such directory on my computer, and it should be pointing elsewhere.

Now it is there

Windows: "C:\Users\your_user_name\AppData\Roaming\Slic3rPE" or "C:\Documents and Settings\your_user_name\Application Data\Slic3rPE"

There's no such folder under Roaming.

Re: Slic3r settings location

You can also use a directory of your own by running (launched quickly with a shortcut):
path_to_slicer_exe\slic3r.exe --DataDir "your_settings_directory"
It is what I use. Then I can still run older releases without too much issues as I run older releases with their own directory.
