I am having a hard time to find out which font is used by the Win 7 File Explorer in the tree view on the left hand side. Better, of course, would be if I can programmatically find out which the right font is (C#).

I searched the Windows 7 design guidelines but this particular scenario is not listed (at least I couldn't find it).

So anyone good with fonts?
