    They should be in the default installation directory.

    Try these paths:
    WinXP: C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Autodesk\
    Win7: C:\ProgramData\Autodesk\RME 2010

    But if you can't, you can change it unbelievably easier than AutoCAD by typing UN while in Revit. Just change the units there and you're done.
