Non-steam NTW?

I dont understand. I keep hearing that there exists a non-steam NTW. I am interested because I have steam retail version (bought from the store) and I cant find the folder to do self editing and modding and all that good stuff. Does a non-steam version exist?

I don't think so, chances are it's an illegal thing. If it is I would guess it's against ToS to talk about it.

Trying to find documents and settings to edit a file and I cant find it. Where are all the NTW files stored?

Well if you've installed the game then simply use "search" and narrow the search to "program files".

Type in "napoleon" as the object in "part of a folder name".

Or you could go direct and look in C/program files/steam/steam/steam apps/common

Or you could go to the mod work shop and read some tutorials and get some tools which find your folders for you

non-steam version = illegal

dont forget that in order to mod an NTW file you need PFM

I think you may be confusing "not bought on Steam" with "non-Steam", OP.
You can get NTW from a store (not from Steam) and install it from that disk, but you still need to activate it on Steam.
