Are talking about the bunch of files like .gnuchash .banking .gconf etc.?

If so, I modified 
\Program Files\gnucash\bin\gnucash.bat 
(BTW, language change is optional - I'm running Vista Ultimate with a
language pack)

set HOME=%LOCALAPPDATA%\GnuCash
mkdir %HOME%
set LANGUAGE=en_EN
set LANG=en_EN
start gnucash-bin

Onderwerp: Changing the home directory

Hello,

I just set up Gnucash on my machine, and am pretty pleased with how it is
operating so far.  However, there is one thing I did on accident that I
can't seem to change.  The first time I ran Gnucash, I set my Home Directory
to my "Owner" folder in Microsoft Vista.  I don't really want to have
gnucash files all over that folder, so I having been trying for quite some
time now to change my home directory.  I've checked out the help manual,
concept guide, and a couple of the pieces of documentation, but none of them
seem to address this as far as I know.  The only thing I can think to do
right now is to save my files, uninstall gnucash and then reinstall it
choosing the proper folder for a home directory.  Can you guys help?
