On XP and above, my System32 folder is at C:\WINDOWS\system32. On Windows 2000 it is at C:\WINNT\system32. Is there a
System.getProperty("something");
or some way that I can get the location of the System32 folder?
Since I think NT, the way to get it through environment variables is: %WINDIR%\system32
You can do this:
String sysdir = System.getenv("WINDIR") + "\\system32";
More default environment variables for windows on Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Environment_variable#Examples_from_Microsoft_Windows
SYSTEMROOT
and WINDIR
are identical in NT systems, but WINDIR
also works for older, 9x kernel-based windows.
