问题 My application is something similar to a Contact Manager. Let's say a user can enter contacts with their addresses. I have the code and technology to save my contacts to a file. But where do I save that file? Considering this is a .NET application running on Windows. Should my file end up in the AppData of the users folder? Should I use the Isolated Storage (as mentioned here)? Something else? What's the recommended practice? 回答1: I ended up using the solution Patrick suggested: Environment

This example Console Program.cs code includes parameters string: string parameters = ApplicationData.Current.LocalSettings.Values["parameters"] as string; But the name ApplicationData does not exists in the current context, I'm trying to find out, if I've missed some reference or it is different version of C# I'm not sure even if it is what it requires, but

问题 I use an XML file in App_Data in conjunction with a Repeater on the main page of an intranet application allow me to display messages to users when they logon about application status, maintenance, etc. To test the functionality, it would be nice to have the file in the App_Data folder under development, but if I do this it copies it over the file on the production server when I publish the application. Is there anyway I can prevent this from happening short of going to a Web Deployment

I thought that CSIDL_COMMON_APPDATA\company\product should be the place to put files that are common for all users of the application and that the application can modify, however, on Vista this is a read-only location, unless modified by the installer (as per MSDN - http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms995853.aspx ), so... what's best? Modify the location's security settings to allow writing or use CSIDL_COMMON_DOCUMENTS\company\product instead? Maybe there's a third option? Also, is there an "official" Microsoft recommendation on this somewhere? Modify just the security on a specific sub

I looked all over the internet and there doesn't seem to be a decent solution that I could find. I want to be able to programmatically in C++ obtain the path "%ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Application Data" that explorer can translate into a real path. Can I do this without relying on third-party code? Use SHGetFolderPath with CSIDL_COMMON_APPDATA as the CSIDL. TCHAR szPath[MAX_PATH]; if (SUCCEEDED(SHGetFolderPath(NULL, CSIDL_COMMON_APPDATA, NULL, 0, szPath))) { //.... } Danield Just to suppliment interjay's answer I had to include shlobj.h to use SHGetFolderPath . Often you may need to read a file from

How do I find the Windows common application data folder using Python?

I would like my application to store some data for access by all users. Using Python, how can I find where the data should go? If you don't want to add a dependency for a third-party module like winpaths, I would recommend using the environment variables already available in Windows: What environment variables are available in Windows? Specifically you probably want ALLUSERSPROFILE to get the location of the common user profile folder, which is where the Application Data directory resides. e.g.: C:\> python -c "import os; print os.environ['ALLUSERSPROFILE']" C:\Documents and Settings\All Users

SHGetFolderPath() for a specific user

由 浪尽此生 提交于 2019-11-26 21:57:38
问题 I'm looking for a good way to get the local application data folder for a specific user -- without having to enter the login details for that user. SHGetFolderPath() can accept an access token for whatever user I want to get the local appdata folder for, but to get an access token, you have to provide the user's password. Also, according to the docs this isn't supported on <= Windows 2000. The registry key HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell Folder contains the
