Gives you copy/paste-able functions to retrieve the localized folder names, and to set/get user-defined folder names for dekstop folders
// stdafx.cpp : source file that includes just the standard includes
// GetFolderNamesDemo.pch will be the pre-compiled header
// stdafx.obj will contain the pre-compiled type information

#include "stdafx.h"

// TODO: reference any additional headers you need in STDAFX.H
// and not in this file
