But I want to know that Are there some files associated with these stores? and where’s the location of them?
and secondly, where is the private keys, in registry or in files?

Private keys are generally on the file system, but they are encrypted by the OS. Usually located in c:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Crypto (or equivalent on older OSes).
