For Vista/Win7: C:\Users<username>\AppData
Try this for your Windows CE -
Console.WriteLine("GetFolderPath: {0}",
Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.ApplicationData))

Subject: finding a directory
Hey there ppl,
I’m using an XML file to save some UserSettings in my Windows CE C# project,
and when I save a file in the following path
(Environment.SpecialFolder.ApplicationData) it appears to be working fine. The
problem is I can’t for the life of me find the file when I refer to it in
Windows Explorer. I’ve done a full PC search but I can’t find the dang file.
When I use the debugger, the value for that folder is \\Application
Data<https://magellan.smsmt.com/owa/UrlBlockedError.aspx> which is not useful
as it does not take me directly to the file.
The reason I’m trying to find the file, is so that I can edit the file and see
what affect it has but I am having no luck at all at the moment.
Can anyone shed some light for me?
