I am 99% sure that the application folder is there. You just have to search for it.

In my case, the application ID is com.iyfuture.peddypaper. So I search inside the device file explorer a folder that haves this exact name.

Personally I recommend you to always synchronize the device file explorer before doing any type of search. You can achieve it like this:

  • Inside the device explorer press the right mouse button in the folder or file you want;
  • After pressing it you will see a list that will have the synchronize option. Select it.

This way you guarantee that every folder and file are updated (before any changes you or the application might do).

One last thing: make sure that the emulator you are using is running and that it is exactly the same as the selected device in the list that appears at the TOP of the Device Explorer.
