If you mean find not file see this.

This method will work on all versions of Windows that will run FSX (XP or Vista).

Open your start menu.

(Vista) Go the the search/run box and type %appdata%\Microsoft\FSX
(XP) Go to run and type %appdata%\Microsoft\FSX

Open fsx.cfg with Notepad.

Nope, It is actually in your user account's folder and all subfolders there, you can acess, though some may be hidden. You just need to get to the folder.

This method will work on all versions of Windows that will run FSX (XP or Vista).

Open your start menu.

(Vista) Go the the search/run box and type %appdata%\Microsoft\FSX
(XP) Go to run and type %appdata%\Microsoft\FSX

Open fsx.cfg with Notepad.
