%systemroot% is not a file but a system variable holding the path to your
systemroot, ie. (normally) C:\WINDOWS
FYI start, run, cmd and enter the command: set.
you'll see the variables your system works with.

Start | Run | Type or paste: %systemroot% | OK

This will open >>>

C:\WINDOWS
or
whatever drive/partition:\WINDOWS
