http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb762494(VS.85).aspx CSIDL_PROFILE (FOLDERID_Profile) Version 5.0. The user's profile folder. A typical path is C:\Documents and Settings\username. Applications should not create files or folders at this level; they should put their data under the locations referred to by CSIDL_APPDATA or CSIDL_LOCAL_APPDATA.
