Get Paths to Windows Special Folders from VB.NET
Special Folders are Windows folders such as:
My Documents, Desktop, Favorites, Recent, Documents and Settings, Cookies,....
Here's how to get the path to these folders.
VB.NET code:
'
' Declare a variable of type SpecialFolder.
'
Dim typeSpecialFolder As System.Environment.SpecialFolder
'
' Loop through all special folders.
'
For Each typeSpecialFolder In _
typeSpecialFolder.GetValues(GetType(Environment.SpecialFolder))
Console.WriteLine(System.Environment.GetFolderPath(typeSpecialFolder))
Next
C# code:
System.Environment.SpecialFolder typeSpecialFolder;
foreach (System.Environment.SpecialFolder atypeSpecialFolder in
System.Enum.GetValues(typeof(Environment.SpecialFolder)))
{
typeSpecialFolder = atypeSpecialFolder;
Console.WriteLine(System.Environment.GetFolderPath(typeSpecialFolder));
}
You can also use code similar to:
Using System.IO;
DirectoryInfo di = _
New DirectoryInfo(System.Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.Personal));
Console.WriteLine(di.FullName);
