This Long property contains the CSIDL value for the Local folder that files should be copied TO. This could for example be IT_CSIDL_PERSONAL or IT_CSIDL_LOCAL_APPDATA depending on the nature of the files.
If this is application data, that the user should not mess with, IT_CSIDL_LOCAL_APPDATA might be more appropriate. Note that on Windows Vista, IT_CSIDL_LOCAL_APPDATA is hidden so it does not show up in the Explorer window.
If this is data that the user may need to copy, backup, etc. then IT_CSIDL_PERSONAL would be more appropriate. IT_CSIDL_PERSONAL generally refers to the "My Documents" folder. Please check out our FREE SpecialFolder (http://www.icetips.com/downloadfile.php?FileID=71) program that is invaluable in determining the actual locations on the various operating systems.
