Members

	Member name	Description
	ApplicationData	The directory that serves as a common repository for application-specific data for the current roaming user. A roaming user works on more than one computer on a network. A roaming user's profile is kept on a server on the network and is loaded onto a system when the user logs on.
	CommonApplicationData	The directory that serves as a common repository for application-specific data that is used by all users.
	LocalApplicationData	The directory that serves as a common repository for application-specific data that is used by the current, non-roaming user.
	Cookies	The directory that serves as a common repository for Internet cookies.
	Desktop	The logical Desktop rather than the physical file system location.
	Favorites	The directory that serves as a common repository for the user's favorite items.
	History	The directory that serves as a common repository for Internet history items.
	InternetCache	The directory that serves as a common repository for temporary Internet files.
	Programs	The directory that contains the user's program groups.
	MyComputer	The "My Computer" folder. Note: The MyComputer constant always yields the empty string ("") because no path is defined for the My Computer folder.
	MyMusic	The "My Music" folder.
	MyPictures	The "My Pictures" folder.
	MyVideos	The "My Videos" folder.
	Recent	The directory that contains the user's most recently used documents.
	SendTo	The directory that contains the Send To menu items.
	StartMenu	The directory that contains the Start menu items.
	Startup	The directory that corresponds to the user's Startup program group. The system starts these programs whenever a user logs on or starts Windows NT or later, or starts Windows 98.
	System	The System directory.
	Templates	The directory that serves as a common repository for document templates.
	DesktopDirectory	The directory used to physically store file objects on the desktop. Do not confuse this directory with the desktop folder itself, which is a virtual folder.
	Personal	The directory that serves as a common repository for documents.
	MyDocuments	The "My Documents" folder.
	ProgramFiles	The program files directory.
	CommonProgramFiles	The directory for components that are shared across applications.

Remarks

The system special folders are folders such as Program Files, Programs, System, or Startup, which contain common information. Special folders are set by default by the system, or explicitly by the user, when installing a version of Windows.

The GetFolderPath method uses these enumerated constants to designate the special folder path to retrieve.
