B4J Question Dropbox location on PC?

[ValDog]

I know the Dropbox location on a Windows PC is typically like "Users/<user name>/Dropbox" but how can I reference this directory location w/o knowing the user name? Is there a symbolic link for the Dropbox folder?

I'm not familiar with such link. However you can always ask the user to select the folder with DirectoryChooser.

Just use %Username% instead of <user name>.

I'm pretty sure that the user can choose the folder during installation. Which means that the folder can be anywhere.

Yes, I am currently using the FileChooser - I was just hoping to use the Dropbox location as the default start location. Thanks for the responses!
