SYSK 97: The Power of Environmental Variables

  • Artikel

Did you know that if you type %appdata%  in Windows Explorer’s address bar, and press Enter, it’ll open C:\Documents and Settings\UserName\Application Data folder?  Likewise, by typing %windir%, you’ll get into whatever folder you’ve installed windows (e.g. c:\Windows or c:\WinXP, etc.).

 

Other variables include:

%temp%                      C:\Documents and Settings\UserName\Local Settings\Temp

%userprofile%             C:\Documents and Settings\UserName

%systemroot%            Same as %windir%

%programfiles%          C:\Program Files

%allusersprofile%       C:\Documents and Settings\All Users

 

Same variables (plus many more) are also very useful from batch files… But that a topic for another SYSK post.
