    What specific folder are you looking for. Each user has many. eg- C:\Users\

    Something like that would be spread out in a number of places. In program files ( or program files x86) in the Windows folder(s) for the driver files that would have been installed along with it, in app data folders for stored data and log files, and probably a few others I can't think of at the moment along with hundreds of registry entries. Some printers also place their own folder in the root drive.

    What exactly are you wanting to do? I can't think of too many things that could or should be attempted by searching for a printer's folders.

    I was installing the brother printer software. The brother said put the usb cable into the port inside the printer but it didn't connect it. What do I do?

    First make sure you have the correct software. Each windows OS usually has it's own software and drivers designed for it.. esp important is whether the OS is 32 or 64 bit. Double check here to see if you installed the right one..

    Question Uninstalled the brother software but the printer is still working

    I uninstalled the brother software but the printer is still working except the scanner. I saw the windows deployment tool software in the add/remove program. Do I uninstall it?

    I would leave that alone. I don't know why the scanner is not working though perhaps others here will have some ideas. First thing I would try though is to make sure I have the correct Brother software and try to reinstall it.
