App_Data Folder and Windows Operating Systems
I have an VB.NET application that installs a DB to the App_Data folder and uses that variable in the code to locate the database. It was written under XP. We have recently installed it to a Vista machine, and the App_Data folder was finally found (after much searching) under the 'Users' folder. Does anyone have a resource of information concerning how this varies from OS to OS? Thanks.

I think AppDomain.CurrentDomain.Ge
Rather System.Environment.GetFold

Oh, I am getting the correct path in all instances ... but WHAT THAT PATH IS per each OS is the questions. For example, in XP it tends to be:
C:\Program Files\MyProgram\AppData\
whereas in Vista, it is:
C:\Users\blah\ApplicationD
etc ... i was just wondering if there was a resource that would tell me exactly how each OS treats the AppData variable.
C:\Program Files\MyProgram\AppData\
