Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("SOMETHING");
Thanks in advance!

Use second overload of GetEnvironmentVariable which let's you specify EnvironmentVariableTarget.
It's the same method, just set the second parameter to be User
as:
System.Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("varName", EnvironmentVariableTarget.User);
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
.
