Anybody know where (which Windows folder) ebooks purchased via the Kobo desktop app are stored?

Because of sync compatibility issues, I would like to use Calibre as exclusively as possible for book management, and sideload to the Kobo device using Calibre's Add Book function. However, I can't seem to find where exactly the epubs I bought via the app are on my PC (I'm running Windows Vista) so I can tell Calibre.

I have found where Calibre, Adobe Digital Editions, and Sony Reader store the ebooks they know about but not Kobo purchases. The books don't appear to be among any of My Documents. They don't display in Program Files/Kobo, and there is no Kobo folder under Program Data).

Thanks in advance!
