My Audacity folder is empty

Hi everyone, I hope this hasn’t been addressed before, I looked quickly but couldn’t find the answer to my question. I want to install a plug-in, but my Audacity folder is totally empty, I don’t have that “plug-in” folder in which I should put my plug-in file. Can somebody help me? I tried to check “show hidden folders” on my computer but it didn’t work.
Thank you.

Windows 10?
Which version of Audacity?
How did you install Audacity?

Hi. Thanks for your answer. I have Windows 10 and I have the 2.1.3 version. I downloaded it from the Audacity’s website.

Did you download and run the EXE installer from here: Audacity ® | Download for Windows

Have you tried running Audacity? Does it run?

Which folder precisely are you referring to? What is the full path name?

Yes, that’s what I did. It runs perfectly well, I did some recordings already.

I downloaded it in French, maybe that’s the problem? The path in English should be something like this : My computer/Documents/Audacity

That is a path suitable for saving your work, but it is not the correct location for installing plug-ins.

For installing Nyquist plug-ins, put them in:
/Users//AppData\Roaming/audacity\Plug-Ins/
where “” is your computer log-in name.
Note that “/Users//AppData” is a hidden folder.
