How to read a user environment variable in C#?

Question

How can I read a user specific environment variable? I know how to get a system wide one, like

Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable(\"SOMETHING\");

Answer 1

Use the other overload of the Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable Method that lets you specify the EnvironmentVariableTarget.

Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable(variable, target);

target can be:
EnvironmentVariableTarget.Process,
EnvironmentVariableTarget.User,
EnvironmentVariableTarget.Machine.
