In my idea... unless theres a component to do that... the only way is through recursive methods.
make a function that return a string. Look for folders in the starting folder and recall the same function with each sub-folder until you found your folder or that GetDirectories return no folder.
Youll have to make the algorithm
Make sure to have a stop condition... because youll get a stack overflow if you do a infinite loop.

Could send you in the right direction
Also, look in the very powerful IO.File methods
