For some reason the .IntelliJIdea90 folder is under C:\Users\Administrator.IntelliJIdea90 when I installed Idea 9.0.2 on Windows 7 (64 bit). Does anybody have an idea why this would happen?
IDEA is using user.home Java property to find the location of your home folder. On your system this property returns Administrator for some reason. It’s JDK standard property, so the problem is outside of IDEA code. Not sure what can be causing it, maybe some environment issue. On my Windows 7 64-bit IDEA puts this folder into the correct location with my user name.

Paths to IDEA folders can be changed in IDEA_HOME\bin\idea.properties.
