Is there a list of default APPDATA directories each version of Windows? (XP & up)
I need to know the default directory each OS will return for the following call:
SHGetSpecialFolderLocation( NULL, CSIDL_APPDATA|CSIDL_FLAG_CREATE , &pidl );

There isn't really a simple answer to make into a list even for just english installs.
Here are some examples I just pulled from a few machines.
Windows 7 - C:\Users\TestUser\AppData\Roaming
2K8 - C:\Users\TestUser\AppData\Roaming
Vista - C:\Users\TestUser\AppData\Roaming
XP - C:\Documents and Settings\TestUser\Application Data
2K3 - C:\Documents and Settings\TestUser\Application Data
you will get different answers for when you Roam or not, when you use a remote desktop etc.
