Copy Folder From %appdata% To A New Folder

Jun 20, 2011

I'm trying to write a small script that will copy a folder (named .minecraft) to a new folder (doesn't exist, but I want to create a new folder called .minecraft_backups). The current code I have is:

My.Computer.FileSystem.CopyDirectory("%appdata%/.minecraft", "%appdata%/.minecraft_backups", True)

I get an error saying: Could not find directory '%appdata%/.minecraft'. I'm guessing it's because of the %appdata% shortcut. Is there any workaround to do this? The reason for this is because obviously if I don't enter %appdata% and enter the full route to the directory I need to enter the users username for the computer.

Change The Default Appdata Program Folder?

Jan 16, 2010

Is there anyway to change the default appdata program folder?

i have a class to serialize my settings, and i just want to save them to:

appdata/roaming/[programname]/settings.xml

but when i use the filesystem.specialdirectories.currentuserappdata(something like that) it give me appdata/roaming/[company]/[programName]/[Version]/

i don't want any of that extra stuff, especially since new versions won't be able to access the old settings.
