Excel VBA on my work PC throws errors when I try to refer to the class
'FileSystemObject' or its associated constants (such as 'WindowsFolder').

Which library is the one I need a reference to?

Thanks!

Assuming scripting is not disabled, you need add a reference
(ToolsReferences) to "Microsoft Scripting Runtime".

Just to add, without the reference you could use late binding but subject to
scripting not disabled as Nick mentioned. You would need to declare all
related object variables "As Object" and use numeric values instead of named
constants and would loose intellisence, eg

Sub test()
Dim oFSO As Object

On Error GoTo errH
Set oFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
For i = 0 To 2
Debug.Print oFSO.GetSpecialFolder(i)
Next
Exit Sub

errH:
MsgBox Err.Description
End Sub
