Adding favorites

[G Mills]

Is there a global variable for the user's Favorites folder? If not then is there any way to copy files to the current user's profile?

I have found the _UsePerUserFolders variable but this is just a toggle variable so I can't use this to copy files to the current user's profile as I was hoping to.

Any ideas?

Here is a function to find the Favorites folder:

function GetFavoritesFolder()
	local strReturn = "";
-- "Explorer" should be all together below.  For some reason this BBS breaks it up.
	local strKey = "Software\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion\\Explorer\\User Shell Folders";
	
	strReturn = Registry.GetValue(HKEY_CURRENT_USER,strKey,"Favorites",true);
		
	return strReturn;
end

To test it, put it in your On Startup project event followed by:

Dialog.Message("Favorites Folder", GetFavoritesFolder());
