Where is the ToDos.sdf file in the Breeze Tutorial

This may be a stupid question. I am playing around with Breeze and have made a new Web project and added the NUGet packages and it runs perfectly. I am following this document: http://www.breezejs.com/samples/todo-server which says "The Todo database itself is not included in the download. Rather the application (re)generates it from scratch, with mock data, every time the server starts. You'll find it as the hidden "Todos.sdf" file in the App_Data folder."

However, I am unable to find it under my VS2012 project - I have no App_Data folder (I have hidden folders in Windows 7 turned on). There is no information in the web config at all from the sample - I don't understand how EF CodeFirst knows where to make it.

The reason I am asking is that I am trying to integrate Breeze with a DotNetNuke module (with a PhoneGap app, but this is nothing to do with that) and I am having problems with this (invalid login) and want to check the actual database, but I can't find it...

Thanks

Once you run the Todo sample solution, the Todos.sdf file will be generated at .\breeze-runtime-plus-1.3.4\Samples\Todo\Todo\App_Data.

The DB is dropped/recreated each time the solution is executed. You might change that in TodoDatabaseinitializer.cs.
