I am in the process of redirecting users favorites and cookies and the adm I have suggests using %userprofile%/favorites but I have a mandatory profile so I want to put the users favorites in their "my docs" I tried %userfiles% but I know that isn't right.
Can anyone help?
Thanks

You can use the SET command to list all environment variables (and their values) at a command prompt. As above, you need %homepath%
