Mcedit not seeing Minecraft App on Windows 10 - Side view of crop serious Asian lady in casual wear sitting at table with cup of beverage and browsing netbook against big glass window on sunny day

I'm trying to configure Mcedit for Minecraft and the version of Minecraft I'm running was purchased and installed through the app store on Windows 10. Mcedit is unable to see the .minecraft file; so in other words it doesn't see Minecraft. I've done some research and see the install folder:

where <username> is your username (in your case, david.
