There's a file in the Emacs distribution (it's
share/emacs/site-lisp/site-start.el in 24.4 from ftp.gnu.org, it might
be in a different place on other versions) that allows you to define HOME,
i.e. what `~' expands to. Mine's attached, obviously change as suits
you.

Basically:
(setenv "HOME" "C:/Users/Username/WHATEVER/")

Thanks, Jordan
