I installed StyleCop on MS VS Web Developer Express and cannot edit the settings

I am looking for a settings file to change the settings manually, but cannot find it.

I followed these directions to install: http://stylecop.codeplex.com/wikipage?title=Setting%20Up%20StyleCop%20MSBuild%20Integration

(with one exception, I placed the StyleCop.Targets file in the project folder)

StyleCop works correctly, but I want to change the settings - where can I find the settings folder? I read that it looks in the directory where StyleCop.Targets is located, then it moves up the directory until it reaches the root of the disk looking for the file, but I cannot find it.

An alternative to finding it would be to find a sample StyleCop settings file online so that I can download it and put it in my directory and point to this settings file. Does anyone know about such a file?

Any help would be appreciated.

you will not see StyleCop user interface integration, since the VS Express version does not support integration of add-ons and packages such as StyleCop.

If you use Express, you can still run StyleCop, but for this you will need to use the MSBuild integration or the pre-or post-build event.
