You can use SHGetKnownFolderPath(FOLDERID_Downloads), passing in a token for the desired user account. The trick will be in knowing which user you want. There may be more than one user logged in at the same time. There may be no users logged in at all. If your service is running under the SYSTEM account, it can enumerate active user sessions via WTSEnumerateSessions() and get their user token via WTSQueryUserToken().
