it, as far as I know, you use %UserProfile%\favorites and that's the kind of
list I thought he'd find when googling.

Chances are, he's missing something while reviewing the command prompt.
Set displays all environment variables that are "set," so Jeff's suggestion
will show them all.

Simply drop to a command prompt and issue a command like:
Set> c:\envlist.txt
You will get a list.

take the few you do know (such as appdata and userprofile) and google
them together; you'll likely come up with a page listing them all.

As you know, the %appdata% variable in Windows, holds the full pthname
pathname to the Application Data folder for the current user. I know,
there should be similar variables for 'my documents', 'favorites' and
so forth. Does anyone know, of a list of all the available variables
in Windows? I did try the SET command, in the cmd window, but it only
lists some of the variables (doesn't give me the variable for my
favorites folder, for instance).
Thanks alot,
