How to get path to Desktop for current user in C# ?

Question

This should be a no brainer, but somehow I can't persuade Google to give me a decent answer.

The only think I could find is the VB-only class SpecialDirectories, which has this property:

My.Computer.FileSystem.SpecialDirectories.Desktop

How can i do this in C# ?

Answer 1

string path = Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.Desktop);

Answer 2

string desktop = Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.Desktop);

Answer 3

this will return the required path.

System.Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.Desktop);

Answer 4

You can do this:

string dir=Environment.GetFolderPath(SpecialFolder.DesktopDirectory);
