C:\Data\Users\DefaultAccount for 10586 on.

It used to be

C:\Users\DefaultAccount for 10240

but MS have moved it to a link rather than a physical directory now. Part of tightening down security I suspect.

Of course it will not exist if you haven't created it by some means. i.e. Writing to it. Just create it if not present as a Music directory now.

Memo to self: Must get round to changing the FAQ to reflect this. Ah, the penalties of FAQ creation/maintenance strike again.

Edit: Done. FAQ 55. Where are the Known Folders stored on the Pi at Core IoT Kernel level
