In a windows forms application you can use this to get the path to a a user's "application data" temp directory:

Application.UserAppDataPath

How does one do this in a console application? I've been scouring the MSDN documentation and I can't seem to find anything similar. There certainly isn't anything under the console namespace, and there doesn't seem to be any access to the Application namespace from a console app.

Hmmm, I don't know how to do this directly, but can't you cheat a little by adding a reference to System.Windows.Forms and then import the namespace? That allows you to use Application.UserAppDataPath like you normally would....

While typing this post, I was listening to: Innocence by The Smashing Pumpkins (Track 7 from the album: Machina II: Friends and Enemies of Modern Music)

I suppose I could I'll try that if the need arrises again.
Even though I didn't end up using this, I found what really wanted:

Path.GetTempPath()
Path.GetTempFileName()
