Windows has an environment variable named ProgramFiles that
contains the path (like C:\Program Files or C:\Programme).
Perhaps this helps. It's also in the registry.

And then there is the quick and dirty method of looking for both
the language-specific folder and the Program Files folder and
check which one has more subfolders. (More dirty than quick
though :-)
