Path templates allow you to specify file paths that are not static, but adjust to the localization and user names of the installation they're used on. It also allows you to scan more than one location in a single row.
Examples
The following table describes sample folders; in addition to that, keep in mind that any of these templates will be used for every user of the system, e.g. <$DESKTOP> actually looks for a file on every users desktop, not just one as seen in the list below. Also, where applicable, system folders do contain values for both 32 and 64 bit.
