Can't find structural Steel toolbox after upgrading to 08

Can't find structural Steel toolbox after upgrading to 08

Can't find structural Steel toolbox after upgrading to 08

(OP)
Hello,

I was using structural Steel Toolbox in SW07, and i upgraded to 08 for few weeks and didn't need this feature until today, I got an error which says "The current profile (Default Profile) doesn't contain any standards that have steel section types." and it opens an empty table for me.
I think while upgrading the library wasn't installed in it's proper place.
Can you please help me (with the library name and path) so i can copy it or how to point to it from solidworks options if this is duable?

Regards

Under Options>File locations> show folders for > design library:

I searched the path specified and there is nothing after data so i dont have design library folder.

Any ideas will be great.
