Getting the Users and data folders on Windows Vista

I need to install to Windows Vista and am currently using InstallAware 6.22 and was wondering if there is an easy way to get the Common AppData, Local AppData, and AppData folders, or do I have to read the registry?

These translate to:

Common AppData = C:\\ProgramData
AppData = C:\\Users\\Name\\AppData\\Roaming
Local AppData C:\\Users\\Name\\AppData\\LocalLow

Can these be added to the Target Folders list on the File page, so I can set different permissions etc?

Regards.

John

You can use "Add System Folder" from the context menu that appears when you right click the target folders list.
