List of Environment Variables in Windows XP, Vista and 7

Environment variables work like placeholder or alias for drives, file/folder names and various paths. We here at AskVG frequently use environment variables reference in our tutorials like %windir%\Resources, %programfiles%\Internet Explorer, etc. Many people don't know about them and get confused how to access the mentioned path.
So today we are going to list some important and frequently used system-defined environment variables in this article which will help you in better understanding them.
Most of these environment variables are same for Windows XP and Windows Vista/7 but some are different. So we are listing them separately for XP and Vista/7.
