I have an application I am trying to install. During it's first launch, it is supposed to create a directory in the C:\ProgramData directory under Windows.

When launched on Xubuntu 13.10 via Wine 1.7.10, it spits this error out into the error log:

12:31:56: boost::filesystem::create_directory: Access denied: "/Damned"

In reading on the (Windows-based,) support forums for the application, I see many users referencing the "Damned" directory in C:\ProgramData. However, under "drive_c" in my .wine folder, I do not have a "ProgramData" directory.

Is the contents of this folder re-directed elsewhere, or is something else going on? I would just like to find this location so that I can manually create the directory I need, or resolve whatever permissions problem is causing this error.

What is the name of the application?
This is essential to answer your question.

Please report a bug and "attach" full (normal) error log.

If it which you want directory is c:/ProgramData/Damned?
It is under ${HOME}/.wine/drive_c/ProgramData/Damned ("~/.wine" is default wineprefix), However, for a directory not having been made, a directory may not be found.
