Inno Setup User Home Path

Question

I would like my installer to put some files into a users home path, (the path that the Windows %USERPROFILE% environment variable points to, and the path Qt's QDir::homePath() returns).

I have looked at the Inno Setup Constants page, but can't find the path I am looking for.

Answer 1

Use environment variables {%USERPROFILE} or {%HOMEPATH}.

Update

As Martin pointed out in the comments, {%HOMEPATH} shouldn't be used because it has no disk name (e.g., \Users\username).

Answer 2

For user specific application data you should use the constant {userappdata} which points to the application data folder. In this location you can create a folder for your application to store user specific files in.
