Used keytool to create keystore & key but cant find where it is

I used the JDK's keytool to generate an RSA key for use with an Android app via phonegap build by Adobe.

In my Windows 7 cmd line I added: keytool -genkey -v -keystore andy.keystore -alias andy -keyalg RSA -keysize 2048 -validity 10000 All went well except that despite me, andy, being a user on my machine I cannot find the .keystore file or space anywhere. So I repeated the procedure thinking it hadn't worked properly but this time it told me that the keystore with that alias already exists. I have looked very carefully in my (users) folder/s in fact I have searched my entire machine for anything remotely resembling a .keystore file. Can you tell me where it may be on my system?

It generates the keystore file from the location, you run the command. Also make sure that the current path is writable for the java keytool.
