Subject: storing elpa packages in different folder
Date: Tue, 10 May 2022 00:30:05 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <85h75ywmyy.fsf@gmail.com> (raw)


GNU Emacs 27.2 (build 1, x86_64-w64-mingw32) of 2021-03-26

I'm tryng to make all the packages to be installed in the following
directory 

(setq user-emacs-directory "c:/gnu/initfiles/.emacs.d/")  ;; in ~/.Emacs

but Emacs doesn't put it there but in  C:\Users\siva\AppData\Roaming

what should I set to make it store where I want it?

getenv APPDATA points to the Roaming folder
getenv LOCALAPPDATA is C:\Users\siva\AppData\Local
