I obviously didn't make myself clear, so I'll have another go :)
 
The guessing only happens if FFI is not present.
 
If FFI is present then it uses FFI to call SHGetFolderPathA in shfolder.dll to get the location.
 
please refer to FreeTypeFontProvider>>getWindowsFontFolderPath for the details.
 
SHGetSpecialFolderPath (or SHGetFolderPath)  could be added to some plugin, rather than using FFI, but hasn't yet.
 
Cheers,
Andy
