Your downloaded maps can be found two different ways. The easiest of the two, is to go to File > Open > Battle.net Tab within GalaxyEdit. Otherwise, you need to search your Battle.net Cache for "*.s2ma" and then convert the .s2ma file to .SC2Map. However, the .s2ma filenames are just hashes of their true name, so good luck trying to find the map you need!

The Battle.net cache can be found at:
C:\ProgramData\Blizzard Entertainment\Battle.net\Cache -- Win Vista/7
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Blizzard Entertainment\battle.net\Cache\ -- Win XP

The folder containing Maps created by GE can be found:
%USERPROFILE%\Documents\StarCraft II\Maps

I have windows XP and inside my user folder there is no Aplication data!! This user is the administrator of the computer and the only one user.

It might be a hidden folder. If it is, here's the solution:

Windows XP and Windows 2003

To enable the viewing of Hidden files follow these steps:

Close all programs so that you are at your desktop.
Double-click on the My Computer icon.
Select the Tools menu and click Folder Options.
After the new window appears select the View tab.
Put a checkmark in the checkbox labeled Display the contents of system folders.
Under the Hidden files and folders section select the radio button labeled Show hidden files and folders.
Remove the checkmark from the checkbox labeled Hide file extensions for known file types.
Remove the checkmark from the checkbox labeled Hide protected operating system files.
Press the Apply button and then the OK button and shutdown My Computer.
Now your computer is configured to show all hidden files.

Hope that helps.
