i wrote some code to get Recent folders and files in C# by using

DirectoryInfo d = new DirectoryInfo(
                          System.Environment.GetFolderPath(
                              Environment.SpecialFolder.Recent)).

It is working fine in windows 7.But it is not working in windows xp.
Because there is no folder with “C:\Users\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Recent” in XP.
Then how to get recent files in windows xp?

    On Windows XP, System.Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.Recent) will not return “C:\Users\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Recent”, it returns the correct path. In my case this is “C:\Documents and Settings\daniel.hilgarth\Recent”.
