I ALSO tried to read the registry at some locations (using Rick Strahl class), i.e.: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell Folders where that path is shown, but the default value is not set, therefore it returns .NULL.

You can use the Shell.Application for this, but you'll have to parse the path. For example

#DEFINE COOKIES 0x21
oShell = CREATEOBJECT("Shell.Application")
oFolder = oShell.Namespace(COOKIES)
? oFolder.Title
oParent = oFolder.ParentFolder
? oParent.Title
oParent = oParent.ParentFolder
? oParent.Title
