I can't do the coding, but I took a quick look at msdn and I think this
is relevant:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/shellcc/platform/shell/reference/functions/shgetfolderpath.asp
HRESULT SHGetFolderPath(
HWND /hwndOwner/,
int /nFolder/,
HANDLE /hToken/,
DWORD /dwFlags/,
LPTSTR /pszPath/
);
Also, for nFolder, it looks like the we want to use a value of
CSIDL_PROFILE (0x0028).
Hope that helps someone out there.
