I am using this Rainmeter theme where I need to give the absolute path as a link. I know The Libraries in Windows are not actual folders but virtual paths. But is there a way I can find a location path that points to them?

  • could you explain "give the location of the path as a link" a bit better?

I found it. It seems like I cannot individually access the Pictures or the Music Library. But the path of Libraries as a whole is



C:UsersUSERNAMEAppDataRoamingMicrosoftWindowsLibraries


Edit: Thanks to @akira here is the path of Documents library:



C:UsersUSERNAMEAppDataRoamingMicrosoftWindowsLibrariesDocuments.library-ms

    C:UsersUSERNAMEAppDataRoamingMicrosoftWindowsLibrariesPictures.library-ms does not work?
