If you just want to have it all together in VS Code, you could just open the folder to the new AD config location in addition to your HA config. You’d have both folders open then in a workspace

okay, so I am back at 14.0 and see my AD files.
Can you please explain point 2?
with File Editor I dont see a folder name addon_configs
what do I need to access the folder by using the Terminal & SSH addon?
ah, I used WinZip - didnt know that there is a difference 
Just struggle with point 2 :/(

Thank you, @andarotajo! I used to have the config Samba share mapped to a drive letter (H:) so I may need another mapped share to access the AppDemon configuration folder as well.
Now I tried to open both folders right from \\HOMEASSISTANT. They are visible and accessible:
In VS Code, the config part works but the AD folder does not seem to be accessible:
It seems that VS Code tries to retrieve the AD folder from within in the config share which fails. Is there another way to connect to both folders there?
Edit:
Now it works! 
Please see below!
Mhh haven’t done anything with my mapped drive yet but I also have it on config currently. Just tried opening the folders in VS Code and the following worked for me:
- New VS Code window
- File → Open Folder
- Open the Samba share using
\\<IP>\ - Open the first folder
- File → Add Folder to Workspace
- Select the other folder
Now I have both folders open. I’m on Windows if that matters

Now I got it working!
In the meantime, I tried it the other way around: As a first step, I have added the AD apps folder to the workspace. After that, I have added the config folder. For whatever reason, both folder do appear now within VS Code which is exactly what I wanted to achieve!
Thanks again and much appreciated, @andarotajo!

Hi,
struggling hard to get my sonoff NSPanel running with the Lovelace/AppDaemon combo…
I can’t find ANY of the folders and files that are mentioned for AD over the internet, not a single yaml-file, no folder, nothing. The AD server is, however, running fine, but I can’t find the missing yaml-files to edit and since AD has moved the locations, all previous online help documentations and videos have become redundant over night 
Could someone help me on locating those files that can’t seem to be localized by both file editor and VSCode?
I’m not using the File editor add-on but I’ve just installed it to see if I can help. If you go to the add-on configuration, is the option Enforce Basepath turned on? If yes, turn that off and reload the add-on and you should be able to navigate a level up where you find addon_configs

I did not change any of the options/configuration, just plain install.
Where can I set this up? go to the addon dashboard, click on AppDaemon and then third tab “configuration”? There is no option such as “Enforce Basepath”.
This option is available in the File editor add-on, not AppDaemon.

I’m reeling from a dead AppDaemon after upgrades. I have an AD app that loads data from a CSV. Can someone give me the correct path to use after all of Home Assistant’s recent path updates? I used to look for
/config/appdaemon/apps/contacts.csv
I tried the path to where I now see AD via my Samba share…
/addon_configs/a0d7b954_appdaemon/apps/contacts.csv
and also simply contacts.csv

For reference:
Where is the app located that reads this CSV? A relative path is better but it depends where the app is. Using contacts.csv requires the app to be in the same directory
It was in the same folder as the app, but simply using the file name didn’t work. Taking in @NathanCu 's tip, this worked: /config/apps/contacts.csv

Yeah I think we all need to get familiar with that article. I’ve helped people with at least 6 variants of this issue today alone
With all these variants running around I’m beginning to feel like Mobius and the TVA

None of the proposed answers worked. No apps_config folder present. Nothing in backup, …
Tried to uninstall and install it again but still same error.
Is there way to completely remove it and do a fresh installation which works?
Please do not thread everyone as a linux expert. I don’t think that “It’s moved to its own folder” is a helpful answer. I’ve solved my problem and will share my way step by step so someone that does not familiar with linux can copy it.
My solution was using “Terminal & SSH” add on that you can install from the addons menu in HA. After launching it enter the web interface section and you’ll see a terminal screen. If you enter “ls” it will list you the directories of the root folder and you should see addon_configs folder mentioned in the earlier posts above. Enter “cd addon_configs” command to enter this folder. You’ll have to use “ls” command again because I understand that appdaemon creates a folder with different names in different systems. Mine was a0d7b955_appdaemon so I used “cd a0d7b955_appdaemon” to enter that folder, yours can be different, so please check it. Now type “nano appdaemon.yaml” to edit the config file. Change the secrets line as “secrets: /homeassistant/secrets.yaml” and press CTRL+X to quit. It will ask you if you want to save your changes, answer yes and you’ll return to terminal screen. Now go back to appdaemon addon and restart it, it should start without any errors.
Peace…
