Click to expand...

You can use GetModuleFileName() to return the fully qualified name of the
executable. The result you can pass to _splitpath() to get the drive and
directory which you pass to _makepath() which, think, will get you what you
want.

If it is a managed app, you may also use
AppDomain::CurrentDomain->BaseDirectory and the System::IO::Path helper.
