The Novell engine dynamically remaps well-known root folders such as My Documents and
Program Files to the appropriate location based on the host operating system at runtime. This
assures, for example, that the virtualized My Documents folder will be mapped to
\User\Bob\Documents when running on Windows Vista or \Documents and Settings\Bob\My
Documents when running on Windows 2000.
Most of the time, configurations are constructed using snapshotting or in the graphical user
interface. However, if manually modifying the XAPPL file, the following well-known root folder
variables may be used to configure virtual filesystem locations. Root folder variables are case
sensitive.
@APPDIR@: Folder where the executing virtual application executable resides
@WINDIR@: The operating system install location root
@SYSDRIVE@: The root folder of the drive containing the operating system installation
@PROGRAMFILES@: The Program Files folder
@PROGRAMFILESCOMMON@: The Program Files\Common Files folder
@SYSTEM@: The Windows System32 folder
@APPDATALOCAL@: The folder that serves as a common repository for application-specific
data that is used by the current, non-roaming user
@APPDATA@: The folder that serves as a common repository for application-specific data for
the current roaming user
@STARTUP@: The folder containing the current user's startup items
@PROGRAMS@: The folder that contains the user's program groups
@STARTMENU@: The folder containing the user's Start Menu contents
@DESKTOP@: The current user's Desktop folder
@TEMPLATES@: The folder that serves as a common repository for the current
user's document templates
@FAVORITES@: The current user's Favorites folder
@DOCUMENTS@: The current user's My Documents folder
@MUSIC@: The current user's My Music folder
@PICTURES@: The current user's My Pictures folder
@PROFILE@: The folder that stores the current user's profile data
