if you open a command window and type
set HOME=c:\home
it will only work temporarily

you probably need to add the line
set HOME=c:\home
to autoexec.bat
for it to be permanent

In theory i think
c:\windows\Profiles\username\Application Data\
or
c:\windows\Application Data\
are where Microsoft expects applications to put this 
kind of information
(but if you try that the spaces in the filenames might 
cause problems)
i think maybe there are some registry variables dia 
could lookup instead
of using the HOME variable from the shell.
I have been meaning to look it up and submit a patch 
... but then there
are lots of things i have been meaning to do but never 
get around to

Sincerely

if you set HOME=c:\home, c:\home MUST exist. If you 
set
HOME to something
else, that "something else" MUST be a valid path to an
existing directory.
The HOME variable SHOULD exist, and if it does, it 
MUST
point to *a* valid
directory. Any directory.
