    Description

      Available via SHGetFolderPath() CSIDL_COMMON_APPDATA /
      FOLDERID_ProgramData .

      Here's the code for getting all paths values (it would be useful to have it in the Qts' examples):

      #include <QCoreApplication>
#include <QtDebug>
#include <QByteArray>
#include <QStandardPaths>
#include <QSysInfo>
#include <QFile>
#include <QSysInfo>
#include <QStringBuilder>

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
	QCoreApplication a(argc, argv);
	Q_UNUSED(a);

	QStringList sl;

	QString fn = QSysInfo::prettyProductName() + QLatin1Literal(" ")
				 % QSysInfo::currentCpuArchitecture()
				 % QLatin1Literal(" with Qt ") % qVersion() % QLatin1Literal(" and QSrgLib standard paths.txt");
	QFile outFile(fn);
	if (!outFile.open(QIODevice::WriteOnly | QIODevice::Truncate | QIODevice::Text)) {
		qWarning() << "Cannot open input file " << fn << "\n";
		outFile.close();
		return 1;
	}

	outFile.write((QLatin1Literal("System info:\n")
		% QLatin1Literal("\tbuildAbi = ") % QSysInfo::buildAbi() % QLatin1Literal("\n")
		% QLatin1Literal("\tbuildCpuArchitecture = ") % QSysInfo::buildCpuArchitecture() % QLatin1Literal("\n")
		% QLatin1Literal("\tcurrentCpuArchitecture = ") % QSysInfo::currentCpuArchitecture() % QLatin1Literal("\n")
		% QLatin1Literal("\tkernelType = ") % QSysInfo::kernelType() % QLatin1Literal("\n")
		% QLatin1Literal("\tkernelVersion = ") % QSysInfo::kernelVersion() % QLatin1Literal("\n")
		% QLatin1Literal("\tprettyProductName = ") % QSysInfo::prettyProductName() % QLatin1Literal("\n")
		% QLatin1Literal("\tproductType = ") % QSysInfo::productType() % QLatin1Literal("\n")
		% QLatin1Literal("\tproductVersion = ") % QSysInfo::productVersion() % QLatin1Literal("\n")
		% QLatin1Literal("\tQt version = ") % qVersion() % QLatin1Literal("\n\n")
		).toUtf8());

#define prnLocInfo(location)	\
	outFile.write((QLatin1Literal(#location ":\n")	\
		% QLatin1Literal("\tdisplayName = ")	\
		% QStandardPaths::displayName(QStandardPaths::location) % QLatin1Literal("\n")).toUtf8());	\
	sl = QStandardPaths::standardLocations(QStandardPaths::location);	\
	foreach (QString s, sl)	\
		outFile.write((QLatin1Literal("\tstandardLocations = ") % s % QLatin1Literal("\n")).toUtf8());	\
	outFile.write((QLatin1Literal("\twritableLocation = ")	\
		% QStandardPaths::writableLocation(QStandardPaths::location)	\
		% QLatin1Literal("\n\n")).toUtf8());

	prnLocInfo(DocumentsLocation);
	prnLocInfo(FontsLocation);
	prnLocInfo(ApplicationsLocation);
	prnLocInfo(MusicLocation);
	prnLocInfo(MoviesLocation);
	prnLocInfo(PicturesLocation);
	prnLocInfo(TempLocation);
	prnLocInfo(HomeLocation);
	prnLocInfo(DataLocation);
	prnLocInfo(CacheLocation);
	prnLocInfo(GenericDataLocation);
	prnLocInfo(RuntimeLocation);
	prnLocInfo(ConfigLocation);
	prnLocInfo(DownloadLocation);
	prnLocInfo(GenericCacheLocation);
	prnLocInfo(GenericConfigLocation);
	prnLocInfo(AppDataLocation);
	prnLocInfo(AppLocalDataLocation);

	outFile.flush();
	outFile.close();

	return 0;
}

      And here the result:
