@windir() returns the Windows directory
@windir(S) returns the Windows/System (System32 on NT) directory
@windir(T) returns the Windows/Temp directory

Use that and it will return the full path to those directories.

You can also use other path returning variables/functions:

@curdir() returns the current directory
@path(%0) returns the directory that you're exe is in

Be aware, though, that @windir(T) returns a path with a trailing backslash, for instance C:\Windows\Temp\
@windir() and @windir(S) return no trailing backslash, for example C:\Windows\System

So actually PGWARE's example should probably be:
