I have a C# WPF application and I am trying to find a way to get the path to the root OneDrive directory in Windows. How can I do this programmatically? I have searched online, but I couldn't find anything. I wish I could supply some code but I have no clue; I mean, I have checked system environment variables and I couldn't find anything on my machine, thinking that could be a valid solution, but it didn't turn up anything.
