Methods

| IKnownFolderManager::FindFolderFromIDList Gets an object that represents a known folder based on an IDList. The object allows you to query certain folder properties, get the current path of the folder, redirect the folder to another ___location, and get the path of the folder as an ITEMIDLIST. |
| IKnownFolderManager::FindFolderFromPath Gets an object that represents a known folder based on a file system path. |
| IKnownFolderManager::FolderIdFromCsidl Gets the KNOWNFOLDERID that is the equivalent of a legacy CSIDL value. |
| IKnownFolderManager::FolderIdToCsidl Gets the legacy CSIDL value that is the equivalent of a given KNOWNFOLDERID. |
| IKnownFolderManager::GetFolder Gets an object that represents a known folder identified by its KNOWNFOLDERID. |
| IKnownFolderManager::GetFolderByName Gets an object that represents a known folder identified by its canonical name. |
| IKnownFolderManager::GetFolderIds Gets an array of all registered known folder IDs. This can be used in enumerating all known folders. |
| IKnownFolderManager::Redirect Redirects folder requests for common and per-user folders. |
| IKnownFolderManager::RegisterFolder Adds a new known folder to the registry. Used particularly by independent software vendors (ISVs) that are adding one of their own folders to the known folder system. |
| IKnownFolderManager::UnregisterFolder Remove a known folder from the registry, which makes it unknown to the known folder system. This method does not remove the folder itself. |
